Interest in "Group Buy" for Billboards Tires ?

Thanks cobra de capell.

With the sprint car, we use bias ply and a block pattern tread, and although most of us do mount the tires with the serial number out, that's just for the inspectors to see that we have the correct number/tire compound for the track rules. I seriously doubt, these Billboards are directional but, I will call my dealer tomorrow to confirm, as I may be wrong. I just don't see it though.

Ok, I talked with Brandon and Roger Krause, and they said for racing, you want to follow the recommended rotation for "break in", then you can use them anywhere. There is a "lap line" in the tire that sometimes,....... shows up in racing and can hurt the tire.

For the street, there makes no,...difference. For most of us, our Cobras are for the street, and don't run the same wheel/tire size front & back anyway. If I raced, I'm sure I would not use the Billboards.

My first impressions are that the tires totally change the way the car looks, its a different car. I kept the crappy spray-on paint on the sidewalls for now but may strip it off in the winter and re-paint. Very sticky tires. Throw alot of debris, rocks etc..., Installed neoprene in the wheel wells to keep the rocks from starring the paint from the underside. Once i get a better chance to drive these around (its still cold and rainy here) i'll report back with a better review.

Better be gettin some pics Chris !

I'm going to wait until I get my new stainless side pipe's and dyno the engine to see how restrictive my stock exhaust is. Another reason is, Chad thinks the drums on the chassis dyno with the soft compound Billboards, will hurt the tires.

I will be selling the 428 I have in the car now for Keith's 482 so, I want the dyno numbers for the buyer.
