I have a 2007 Roush supercharged 4.6 Mustang. I just got my 4:10 gear set and I need to change my tires. It had 3:31's and would not hook-up then so I know it won't now. I want to keep the 20's and am not sure if I should by Toyo, Nitto, or ??. The car is not going to be driven much but when I do drive it I want it to hook and handle. I don't know what to run both front and rear to give me the best of both. Any ideas would be helpful.
Thanks
Don

Mine has 18's but at one time I ran a 305/35/18 DR on them and they hooked well enough. Get some 20 inch DR's and they'll hook. I have a friend with a GT500 that pulled a 1.7 60ft with them, so if you have the power, they'll work fine.

No, I meant with his small 800hp! Point being, yours aren't hooking because you aren't doing it right.

Of course go figure.. I don't have a video of a 10.8 run, but this one was 10.9
