27.5” front skinny, 29” rear . Any issues down the track
 
Any body these size tires on the 1/4 mile track. Any issues with the diameter sizes. Want to know before I order some tires.

According to website skinny is 27,8” and rear is 28.8” so 3.48% diameter difference?

I have mainly seen people say no more than half an inch difference otherwise it sets ABS but I don't know the limits

I am 3% different on my street tires and zero issues.

I'm running 27" in the front and 28" in the back and the computer was not a fan. Had to pull the fuses.

Any issues racing down the track with fuses pulled?

It just turns off traction control and stability. You Just won't have abs, braking wasn't much different at all.

I pulled fuses on mine spun just a hair on the launch and it knocked the rev limiter down to 5000 I was waiting for my shift light at 6200.... put them back and problem solved. I would prefer to have them pulled so I don’t have to disable traction control plus I liked the steering better. Idk how to fix that problem though

When I pulled fuses I could no longer do a burnout. Best to match tire sizes and not create new issues.

I haven't experienced anything like that. Shift light came on for me at the usual 6200 and she kept moving.

I think the biggest difference people go is 3%. 285/35/20 and 315/35/20. You might be okay with your selections. Might. You a gambler?

Tune out traction control for the drag strip. I ran 315/35/17 25" rears and stock fronts. Fuses pulled zero issues. Mine was a 2015

Motorboy8769 03-13-2018 04:33 PM

Have no clue why mine did what it did only if I spun a little bit. I don’t spin much when I launch. I wonder if you just disconnect the sensors if that would work better...???? No idea

I have been racing with the fuses pulled for a couple years. Heck my ABS has not even worked for the last year I think we broke a sensor.

But 27 front and 29 rear will will most likely trigger ABS.
