The Ice Dyno is combination of I-75 and Goodyear Run Flats! Point it straight and make sure you have multiple lanes to use up all at once.

Default Mickey Thompson Street Comps for the front!

I'm fittina go online to order my 255/45/18 Street Comp front tires! How much diff in diameter can I run? Will I jack up the computer if they don't match the rears?
The 305/35/19 DR's are 27.9 inches and the Street Comp's are 27 inches in diameter.

Also I'm runnin no TPMS on the track set of tires and wheels. Can I get away with that as well?

I am running stock size Goodyears up front and I always run the Drag Radials in the rear. Car was like driving on ice with stock Goodyears on the rear. "DANGEROUS" and had No Traction till 4th Gear easy roll on at over 130 Mph. Not sure how to answer your question.

Just for future reference, use street tires when dyno tuning if possible. Dynos can chew up drag radials. Good luck on the numbers!
