Dig or Die is here! Changing the car….. Hoosier OR Mickey Thompson Tires

Get em John. Be safe brother!

id go 4 instead of 3.5 offset to make sure it clears but still move it out more than 4.5

Tucked in My Opinion

Do you run tubes in the hooser since the side wall is stiffer

The drivers side wheel and tire looks 1 million times better than the right side. I don't like em all tucked in it just looks wrong. Just my opinion.

The wheel that fills the wheel well looks better...

Well small tire front side no prep has gotten about as fast as some radial racing and it just keeps getting faster every year!

John I like my tire to fill out the wheelhouse just like your drivers side does .

You have the power and chassis to outrun any time team Denver can put down John you just need to send it brother!

Good luck brother John. Finally get to see what you can do against some big dogs with this new combo.

If the car keeps randomly cutting it could be the kill switch shutting the car off. Once the car goes into tire shake.

Sorry to say this john but I don't think that black mustang is gonna work anywhere near as good as the burnt orange one did on the dig or die surface that orange car might of been junk but that junk worked on that surface for sure I just don't think the new car will hook the way the old one did

Good luck TJ! And thanks for continuing to kick out these vids for us to follow along. I know it's a lot of work and we appreciate it. 👍👍👌👌 LETSSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

hi guys love you all

Drivers Side For The Win!!!! 3.5 Looks Awesome !!

Big turbo John hasn’t never been there with a big block Chevy in his race car so those wanna be fast guys better watch out ….. give them hell John ✌️

Sitting in San Diego airport headed to NC! Ready for this weekend!

I wouldn't run no prep especially backside, but I am glad this allows the smaller drivers fame in there sport. Watching the racing is great, the no prep is the equalizer and gives anyone a chance and don't need $100,000 cars to do it with and big purses.

Drivers Side for The Win!!!! 👍

Driver side ftw

Go gettum TJ.
👍😎💯

When is the car getting a wing?

John I think the tires that filled the whole Tire Wheel up looks better

Glad to see they’re going to have testing I hope the car gets down you’re flying to I know you know how to tune tune it Thank you for the videos good luck this weekend I’ll be watching

Baby Raccoon said something about wire nuts and tax!

So glad to hear they will be allowing testing before the race. I agree this will help keep cars from going out onto the streets to test. Good luck John!

Tucked

John what is your width of your rear end

I like the 3 1/2 backspace better, John. It looks amazin!

3.5 inch backspacing looks proper. The 4.5 inch is too much offset.

Ty for cleaning car. Lol

New Mickey radials so you can drive it no swaying

Wanna sell me the old chute?

I like the idea about fatting up the fuel on the 2 step! I seen where another racer had the same trouble a couple years ago where his car died on the launch! He said after fatting it up it never died again! Woo hoo! Get those wins TJohn!🤩🤩

Man im praying you win dig or die you need this and youve been runner up last two years its your time to shine brother im praying for you 🙏

I like the one on the driver side. I think it just looks like it fits correctly.

3.5 back space looks best.

FWIW, I prefer the passenger side rear rim/tire look.

Let's Goooooo

I say split the difference and do a 4” backspace. If you have to roll the fender then it really doesn’t fit.

Good luck John

Good luck John hopefully you win dig or die

I like the wheel well filled out. Having the tires spaced out maybe gives you more stability and is easier to tune the suspension, but I'm no expert.

10 1/2 backspace on a 14" rim is an accident going to happen. The rims flex and twist and ofcourse the poor axle bearings are overloadded by about 5. Great big lever wobbling around outside the diff. What could go wrong. As for b/s 'everyone does it' Just look at drag crash videos of crashed because and axle/ hub broke off. Even if you had floaters that is still very dangerous. Build a wider diff [with floaters] and run the wheels central. All you drag racers have no mechanical sense with these set ups. Oooh aaah it looks good! To me it looks dumb!

Good luck this weekend TJ!

!!!! 😊

I'd leave the slicks tucked since the car will be squatting.

Don't hurt the paint when you roll the fender lip. Get that paint done. Bigger tires for the win.

4"

Drivers side hands down
