Front runners and et.

Does anyone have any comparative data on this? I'm running 28/10-17 Hoosiers on the back and 275/35-20s on the front. I don't want to spend the $ on skinnies/wheels If there isn't much of a gain in et.

Should gain 1/10. I'm running the same size up front as you and considering it as well. I'm basing 1/10 gain from previous cars I've tried with success.

Do you have TPMS sensor in your rear drag wheels? If so do you have to program them? Do you use the stock line lock?

I don't have TPMS in my drag wheels front or rear. Line lock works perfect. On my aftermarket VS wheels, i did not have to program TPMS.

Should be worth 1-2 tenths based on your power level. Here's an interesting article on the subject.

I diligently track all of my passes at the track on a spreadsheet to verify the effect of DA and mods on my '14 GT automatic. Just switching to big & littles (17x4.5's up front with 15x10's on the rear) from factory 18x8 wheels at all four corners with drag radials out back netted me improvements of .186 seconds in the 1/4 mile and 1.93 mph through the traps. So, nearly 2 tenths and 2 mph. And, this is the average improvement, not personal best to personal best, so the actual personal best was a little better. Short times were all improved with the big & littles, as well. Definitely worth the money!!!

I've been running 9.90s -10.0s. I want to be running 9.70s without adding more power.

What power level are you at currently? Im hoping to get consistent 9.90-10.0 with my setup.

On my car going to skinnies which were actaully heavier than my front TSW wheels and tires the car seemed to pick up about .05 this is on a high 10 second car, mph was up about 1 mph.
