How many tenths do drag radials normally knock off 60ft times? The best Ive been able to muster is a 2.333. I mostly get 2.4-2.6 depending how much wheelspin I get. Rightnow It spins all of 1st and half of 2nd. I launch at idle.
Thanks for the help in advance

Iwas thinking about bf goodrich 205/50/14. Crx si w sohc zc i/h/e

 

205-50-15 at 12psi

only way to go..


i went 1.71 60' launching at 4.5k-5k
was boosted though, stick with bfg's not 14's

 

Arent 15's heavier than 14's or 13's more recipricating mass? Plus the bigger tire
='s more weight. Wouldnt that slow me down?

Not at all. If a larger tire allows you to cut better 60's (even like 2.1 60's) you'll shave over .5 sec. off of your current E.T.'s cutting 2.4+ 60's . You need to practice and try different tire pressures. I've cut 1.8 60's on 225/50 BFG's and 2.0's on Straight Kuhmo Ecsta street tires.

EDIT: I'd suggest the 205/50/15 BFG at lower psi (10-14) for you as well. They like lots of heat so, keep that in mind

 

thanks
