12350, drag radials
Posted by optimuspeterson, Sep-24-02 12:33 PM
where is the cheapest place to get drag radials. I know BF Goodrich makes some, but can't think of any others off the top of my head.

damn, i can't get any traction at 7psi, how the hell am i going to get some at 15

or i could go with some slicks if they weren't to expensive. they just have to fit the stock 16 wheel

what street tires are you running? it may be time for new regular tires. i'd say if you don't know any local shops than tire rack would be best. maybe not cheapest but i've installed plenty of their drag tires and they're consistent as far as condition when received and authenticity in what they say about them.

also if your running low profile tires you would have a hard time with traction as far as launches. more sidewall would be better because it will flex some. lot of people run 17's for street and 16's for the track

Nitto makes the Nt555R drag radials, also bfg. Some of the dsm guys use greendot retreads. Micky Thompson may also make a drag radial. check discount tire.
