drag radial question
I have a 97 civic coupe with a k-swap. it made around 280 hp on the dyno. i want to get drag radials but need advice on how big i should go, and what will fit. any info and pics of tires on cars would help. please let me know rim size and offset, tire size, 60' times, and where to purchase.

Re: drag radial question
I need a the same question answering Pal, Im running a Ek b18c4 350whp, here in the uk im running Toyo Track tires for the strip and spin in every gear, ive been told to get MT 26.0/8.5R15 pro drag radail, But am unsure on what 15" rim would accommodate these the best, dont know what 15" standard steels would be like ?

Re: drag radial question
26x8.5 sounds a little too big for 350 hp. but i would guess you'd need 8in rim with 20mm offset for that tire. i hope someone with a little more experience than myself will chime in.

Re: drag radial question
Trouble is ive spent alot of money on Brake set-up with 286mm Fronts so i am limited to 15-16" rims, seems to be MT and M&H have loads of 15" Radial options, think 26-8.5 is the smallest they do

Re: drag radial question
good question. i have considered slicks, and i might go with that. i've never done much with drag radials and figured it would be fun to drive the car to the track and drive it home the same way. assuming i don't break anything. lol
