14" drag radial
Saturday, March 21, 2009 10:52 AM
Not finding too much out there for a 14" wheel. Anyone have any suggestions? These Kumho ECSTA V710s are race tires, but doesnt seem like they say for drag use. Looking for 205 or 215.

hoosier quick time pros


more of a full slick, but they have rain grooves so they're technically "legal"




Hoosier quick time pro D.O.T. slick

and here's the BFG drag radials:
BFGoodrich g-force drag radials (14s included)


just make sure to keep your tire overall diameter as close as possible, that way your gearing isn't altered. If you want some extra bite try increasing the diameter (it makes your gearing taller, making it a lil more difficult for the engine to overspin the tires.. which is fine if you have the extra power... and gives you a bit more speed in the top end, especially if the tire has any sort of growth (I think QTPs grow just like regular slicks).

Also, with the QTPs, try to keep the tire narrow.. I think our fenders can only accept a 10" wide tire before needing to be rolled/ modified

Another option if you haven't already purchased, I have a few buddies running these tires are they are awesome.

I just got a set of these, mounted on Calais 442 rims, 14x6.5





235/60-14

They are a DOT slick, bias-ply, but again still legal and a little less aggressive than a cheater slick like those Hoosiers.
