MT 305/45/18's on backorder forever? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

RockRacer · 07-27-2015, 09:02 AM

Anybody have any info on when these will actually be available? I ordered them over a month ago from Summit, but have been delayed and gotten new delivery dates 3 times. The latest is arrival at Summit on 8/7.

Next question, I've really liked the MT's, but may have to switch to the NT05's if that date moves again.

I'm running a Vortech Supercharger with 9lbs boost, 3200 Stall and 3.73 Gears. I'm around 450hp to the wheel (Mustang Dyno). Am I going to be disappointed by the Nitto's with this much power?

MTs work better than NT05Rs, but I have gone 1.58 on the Nittos with 463rwhp (Mustang Dyno).

How are the new MT? Do they hook better than the ET street II?
