Not a Viper

[LaserBob]

I don't have a Viper, but I love my dodge Ram just the same. I have a 2wd MegaCab that I am trying to get to go a bit faster. I currently run M&H Racemaster DOT Drag Radials and need to get some more tire on the ground.

John, at M&H Drag Tires, suggested this forum to find some info on what to look for in a 10" or 12" wide 17" diam wheel to put on for some larger tires.

Last weekend at Julesburg, Co it ran 13.22 @ 112.5mph. Slow off the line, so I am just looking for a little advice.

Welcome to the VTCoA! We should be able to help you out with your tires.

No kidding! would love to see how much power it takes to pull a front wheel on that thing!

Ha, Move the engine behind the rear axle, and you'd have a good start.

Back on topic some long bars could prolly help you traction tremendously. Venomous1 needs to chime in here. As far as tires some M&H 390 40 17's. Your rear rotors may be smaller so a 16" rim and some slicks would prolly work without caliper grinding.

Put slicks on it and be ready to buy a new rear end
Venomous traction package will not work on this vehicle but he would make you one

175 Rogue - Ultra Wheel

these are what some of us run (but in 5 lug) with the MH 390/40/17 DR.

looks like they make them in 17x10 in an 8 lug pattern so this might be your ticket.

if they clear our rear brakes, i'd imagine they'd clear yours, too...

i don't think you need long bars with a truck that's 23' long

It ain't all tail weight

It's not a durability issue, it's a geometry issue. Scott's system transfers weight to exactly where it needs to be, on a vehicle by vehicle basis. This is why he makes separate kits for the QC's and RC's. The Mega Cab Cummins would require longer bars, etc.

I didnt say the SRT bars I just said long bars and that Venomous could help him out. Ya'll assumed I meant ours LOL

Back on topic some Venomous 1 Racing long bars specifically for the Ram SRT 10 Quad Cab made by Scott at V!R Racing could prolly help you traction tremendously. Venomous1 needs to chime in here.
