Default 08's and Drag Radials

What tire/wheel combinations are you guys running on the streets? I'm looking into purchasing a set to throw on occasionally. Any packages/pricing? Thanks!

Default Re: 08's and Drag Radials

You'll need an E brake relocation kit to run the 18's necessary for drag radials. SSR Wheels work very well.

BFG's seem to be the most popular drag radial with the most traction. Just not too good around corners.

Nitto makes a nice drag radial that I think is more street friendly, handles better and lasts longer.

Kumho V700's work as well as most drag radials for traction, offer better street handling and will work pretty well in the wet if you get caught in the rain.

I've run all of the above. My preference is the Kumhos.

Call JonB at Parts Rack for more info.
