wtb slicks or drag radials
just out of curiosity.....anyone have some slicks or dr's on some cheap rims that are sitting in their garage collecting dust? I'm not 100% on even buying them, but every time I come to this forum I wish I would read "slicks + rims f/s" or "drag radials on cheap rims f/s "
Last time at the strip was embarrasing on the 20's and Goodyears. Stall did nothing but probably hurt me considering 0 traction. Out of desperation I even burned the crap out of them trying to get them to heat up, which did help the launch a little........but cleaning off all that burnt rubber the next day told me never to go to the track again w/o drag tires.

Or my next question would be.......does anyone in the houston area have some that I could possibly rent for the day I go to the track within the next few months?

I think there's a guy that used to post on here named bryan(reallyslowtruck) thats up in dallas i'm thinking that he was trying to sell some e.t. streets or some kind of track tires.
ask sportvortech he knows the guy pretty well.

If I went with drag radials, I'd want as much sidewall as possible, and I'm not sure what width, but something that would fit on a 16" wheel would be good - considering 16" wheels are probably cheaper compared to 17+
