    OH SNAP! These will go quick!
    11.931 @ 116.33 (MT ET Streets)
    12.073 @ 118.43 (Nitto 555)

    I love the smell of Nitromethane and rubber in the morning!

    As I lay rubber down the street, I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide, please dear God protect my ride." -Amen

    just so you know those are not drag radials, they have a 300 tread rating... a little better than an all season.

    295's looked bunched up on an 8.5" rim.

    Arrow Correct me if I am wrong, but.....

    I thought MM wheels were 8 inches wide.

    On a side note, Brad, Fix your sig. My screen name is spelled wrong.
    (#6178 in black per FPIC)
    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    I think the "R" stands for the radials. You may want to fix the description to avoid confusion.

    03 Marauder- 300A, Eaton Swapped, SOLD

    03 Marauder- 300A, 5544 of 7839 in 03, Trilogy #24, SOLD

    per nittos web site:" the nt555r is a d.o.t compliant drag radial designed for maximum flexibility"

    The 295 is street tire, the 305 is a drag radial. If you're going to run the 305 on the street be very very very careful in the rain or we'll be reading another thread about a crashed Marauder.

    1:

    2: I have those tires on my car right now. Go look at your tires, there will be no R at the end. Also look at the tread wear rating, it will be 300, a little better than all seasons. The drag radials are a 100... nt555 and nt555r are totally different tires

    Has nothing to do with respecting your thread, you aren't selling drag radials.
