Im in the process of boosting my b20vtec, my problem being I dont get traction in 1st and 2nd now, boost is just going to make my problem worse. What tires are you guys running FI or high HP N/A that give great traction for launches? this is a street car so full mickey thompson slicks although fun are not practical..

 

Running Falken azenis

can you rev up and launch good with them?? whats your setup

 

I ran Falken Azenis 205/50/15 on my blades. With 200 hp threy werent too shabby, I actually could hook mildy in first, and second was

I recently went with a 16" rim, running es100's, now making 253 ft lbs of torque, and there is no more 1st or 2nd gear , however i know the Azenis at this power would also just spin.

It all depends on your $, if your making mild power, and want a pretty sticky street tire, the Azenis are nice for the price, but if you really want to hook, street and track your gonna need a Bfg drag radial.

 

BFG drag radials are top notch! There just as expensive as a slicks, but really good for the street. Just my opinion...

 

Maybe that's what I need

 

i was running BFgoodrich drag radials(205/50/15), they were my friends tires so i was trying them out, id get alot of wheel spin in first and second but thy would hook when i went into third. my bridgestone potenzas were usless until 4th gear. so they helped out a little bit. im gonna try some yokohama AO32R's in a 225/50/15, theres a guy at the track running them on his fwd ecplise and pulling 1.8 60' times, and he says he has twice the milage on them than his BFg drag radials.

 

205/50/15 bf goodrich t/a g-force drags

 

225/50/15 BFG or what I run 265/60/15 American Racers

 

My set up is simple. Sohc vtec, full exhaust w/2.25 exhaust, crane ign. 8.5
Megacore wires, short shifter, exedy clutch and pressure plate, other mods to be
installed this week. Wed is test and tune so i will know better in track conditions.
But the street their nice I dont spin and shifting to second and third are great.

 

im running 195/60/14s (i think thats it) falken azenis on ym Hx wheels ...but i think i mite look into M/T drag radials for my blades though ...

 

BF Drag Radials..........

Maybe it is just cuz I dont have enough power, but on the streets, I can't even do a 1st gear dry burn

They grip that much better........on my other gay tires, I just sat in one spot, burnin tires, let alone in between 1st, 2nd etc
