240 kit top speed

[icehead]

I am planning a 240 kit mod this fall and i wondering how the 240 kits handled speds above 100mph. does anyone here have this mod and how does it handle big speeds and turns. thanks

I think your biggest concern is finding a 240mm tire with a high enough speed rating. There aren't many out there.

The mechlin 200 is Z rated, can't do a big search on this. No interest. However I will be saving $20.00 on my next rear tire.

No idea about handling, hopefully someone will chime in.

pirelli just came out with a new 240 diablo that is rated to like 180

it's not the tire speed rating you need to worry about... it's the heat rating... at 150 one of those fat tires is gonna really grow (expand) you may end up chuncking the tread. I wouldn't tempt thing on anything bigger than a 200.
