Looks like this is the only Company Making a 12" wide TreadWidth, Drag Slick thats just under 32" tall (100mm Cir,) that will fit a 10" wide 16" Wheel. http://www.intercotire.com/Slick-08-600.jpg Anyone see any problems running this tire? 1200/16*Nostalgia Size: 1200/16*Nostalgia P.

Well, I just got off the phone with Tom, an engineer at M&H Tires (Interco).
After speaking with him about the above pictured Nostalgia Slick, it sounds like it is a perfect fit for my application, and others as well. The Nostalgia Slick is 31.83 inches tall, has a 12" wide contact patch, and will mount on any wheel between 8-12" wide! :) It is rated to go over 250 mph's! :eek2: IMO, This is the "PEFRECT" Truck Drag Slick! and is also M&H's recommendation for truck use. Why is this the perfect Truck Drag Slick? Glad you asked :devil: It is constructed with several beneficial characteristics for Truck use. 1. The side walls are stiffer than the average Drag Slick which allows the tire to handle the weight of a truck during launch (i.e. weight transfer), as most trucks are considerably heavier than a typical 1/4miler. 2. The Compound used on this Slick is softer than the typical Drag Slick, which really helps our light in the ass trucks hook up! :drive: 3. In addition, these tires can be air'd down to 7psi (at 250+ mph), for a wrinkle wall effect and added traction if needed. However, they can also be run at standard air pressures. 4. This is the tire that M&H recommends for for the Desiel crowd as they are able to handle the very high torque these powertrains put down. 5. They can and are used in a 4 wheel configuration as well. Looks like I know what I'm getting :judge: |
