ive had 1.6x 60fts on both drag radials and full slicks.

Id say go slick for a lighter setup.

 

thanks for the feed back fellas!

slicks are looking strong in the lead.
hopefully i'm going to get to try these out on the 26th. i'll report back with the results.
like i said if all goes well, full slicks it is.

 

Hope they turn out well for ya bro! Keep us posted!

 

Post some pics when you get them mounted up.

 

thanks bro!

what do you want pics of?
there some on pg 2.

 

 

I am thinking of running a Hoosier 28x16x10.5 slick on a stock rim. is there enough backspace to tuck the tire good? I have a 3/5 drop and am concerned about rubbing..how much do these slicks grow in height if any?

 

you'll be fine with that setup.

 

i got the worn out shocks installed in the rear.
i adjusted the caltracs with no preload (resting on top the leafspring), et streets @ 22psi, and took the truck out for a spin. it hooks up real good, but i have to get it rolling at 3-5 mph before nailing the throttle (converter flashes hard). i'm thinking if its hooking up good like this on the street, then i shouldn't have any problems at a sticky track. my 90/10 shocks should be here tomorrow also.

 

did you have caltracs before slicks?
