[frank4.6EB992WD]

have any of u guys done this with ur expo

 

[mustangrfast88]

nope got all 4wd and only one problem you are doing a one wheel peel burnout might want to get a air locker or have your rearend service so the posi works in it

how fast do you go through tires?

 

[frank4.6EB992WD]

i dont burn out that much and i do rotate the tires often,to be honest i still have the bfgoodrich tires that replaced the firestones during the recall, thats the only time ive replaced them, sure the tires dont have much tread maybe 3cm and theve been beaten up in the damn city bumpy streets but there still good, im just saving up to buy some 22s

 

[smo0othride]

If you get some 22's make sure to get a wide tire like a 305.

I tried a burnout in mine, but my awd engaged and i shot off like a bullet. I shouldn't have been showin off to my buddies. Almost hit a dang tree.

wow, i did mine with my third row seat and my 2 twelve inch woofers in the back, in drive i believe both of the tires locked up and with my foot on the brake the expo still moved forward, it does have a lot of torque, then i put it in first and just the right tire spinned

I think about the only way I could do that in my 98 expo with 4.6l is to pour about 1/2 gallon bleach under both rear tires.

yall should see my marks 5.4 with the LSD

I've got 285/60R18 Bridgestone Dueler H/Ps, they are pretty sticky. 4.10 rear end with LSD.

I have somewhat of a hard spinning them in the dry,even with the supercharger. They are pretty sticky tires.

But I once put the factory wheels/tires on and they were quite easy to break loose.

I'm a bit hesitant to brake-torque the tranny these days, though, since it has 133K miles and I tow a lot.

How much did you pay for those tires? I am thinking of getting the same ones in the same size.

Sorry I didnt' see your question earlier.

They are on close-out, so get them while you can!
Bridgestone isn't making them any more.

I paid $140 each, installed.

I think they are great tires.
Not sure why, but they didn't seem to catch on...don't seem to be very popular or well-known.
