Well Im looking to go to my first pull. Im gonna get braces and tie rods first but i was wondering if it would be worth my time to try pull with Michelin Ltx m/s2 265's? I have a set of h2's Im gonna put some bfg a/2s on but Im not gonna be able to swing them at the moment.

Go for it. Depending what kind of tracks you have around there they might surprise you. Looks like they are well siped and have a lot of leading edges. Besides, you have to get over those first time jitters anyway.

I agree with IndyFitter06. Go for it. If this is your first pull, tires won't be your limiting factor. You can work a lot on truck setup and how you drive during the pull. I'd get EFILIVE before I'd spend money on tires... That way you can tune your ECM & TCM.

Good Luck
Have fun

Thanks for the info guys. Efi live is definitely on the top of my list. Any idea on the tire Psi too start with?
