Pics of 28x10 slicks on early 2nd gen firebirds
Time for new slicks and wanting to try mt pro bracket radial. I currently run 29.5x9 bias on 10” rim and doesn’t stick out past top quarter panel side. Only sell pro bracket in 28x10 and worried would stick out too far. Right now I’m real close too leaf spring so can’t push in farther.
Thanks |

They also make a 28x9 Pro Bracket Radial. That is the size I run. Great tire with long life span.

I have a M/T 28x10 stiff wall bias slick on my 79 Camaro on an 8" rim. Camaro wheel well a little tighter than a Firebird.

Run plenty of air in them. I run anywhere from 19 to 21 depending on the track. Normal burnout first of the day then just clean them off after that. You will like the tire. The PBR is a .10 quicker than a bias and .07 quicker than a Pro 275 on my car in the 1/4.

275 60 15 drag radials are the same size as 28 10 slicks or real close. I ran drag radials on my 80 t/a for years

So far this is the best radial tire I have run.
