Drag radials full time?
Posted: Jan 07, 2007 11:15 AM
I'm considering running drag radials full time (during warmer months) due to some pretty serious traction issues. This is a popular trick with some of my supercharged Mustang driving friends (350+ rwhp/torque) but was wondering if anyone here has done it. The sidewalls are a bit soft, but you can up the air pressue and they stiffen up somewhat. Plus I'm ready to go to the strip at any time. 
You can get Nittos in 245/45-17 or 275/40-17.
Another option would be to just run my track tires full time (RA1s), which of course would cause them to wear faster and I'm taking a chance of picking up a nail or something which would effectively ruin the tire.
