Any one run slicks on the street and how much psi

 

I put my 25X8.7X13 m&h's on my sentra to do some street tuning before hitting up the track in my sentra. Had them at 10psi and didnt really do much driving around on them. I put them on at a gas station at the straight open road i was going to make the runs down and only had to make a couple turns. Didnt hurt anything and wasnt too hard to drive around. It didnt really help traction much though lol. Still spun like crazy.

How much hp u making

 

In that vid, I was on 34psi of boost on my t67 h.o. w/ .82 turbine housing, big cams, and all other supporting mods. AEM logs showed my id1000 injectors to be at 90% duty cycle with 65psi base pressure. Dont mind the sputtering down low. I tuned that out later on. This was one of the first pulls i did. I was having trouble with my weldon afpr dropping pressure on me though because the company i bought it from sent me the wrong model. lol.

Id say roughly about 650-670whp or so

 

I'm making between 500/520 and I have 24.5-9.5-13 looking to go out to a local high hp meet and I can't get my car to stay on the ground you know so I was thinking about riding up on my slicks that's the reason I was asking

 

yeah, its not very nice driving on the street with them. Cant take any sharp turns or it will rub and so on. Its very bouncy as well. I dont recommend going out to a meet driving on them. Not very wise. Again i did it right off the fresh paved two lane wide 4 mile long straight of road that i was doing the pulls on. Only had to do a couple turns and so on.

Definitely dont recommend it. I was stitting at 550whp on my 60 trim turbo setup and yeah there is no traction with that much power on the street. As light as my car was it would still burn the tires till 140mph but still be pulling pretty rediculous. Its kinda one of those things that sucks about fwd. Id say get as wide of drag radials as you can and make the best of it.

 

Thanks for the info i'll look into some drag radials asap

 

M&H Street & Strips out hook any slick I own on the street. My slicks all suck on the street.

 

get some 225-50-15 mt's.

 

M/T 24.5x9 8psi

 

From my findings, the micky thompson drag radials suck compared to the m&h street and strips.

I've got just about every popular radial for a honda and nothing I have found comes close to the m&h street and strip.

Dig your nails into all the radials you can find, you'll see real fast which is going hook.

 

The tires you're on are bias ply? thanks.
