Tire ?????
 

okie dokey now, I just got 2 10x27 15 hoosier Drag slicks for $20, I already know it will be tight...but would it be dangerous to pop them on my 15x7 bird wheels?

look at hoosiers website, it will tell you what size rim is NEEDED for that size tire.

too much tire for your motor but whatever you wanna do

would they be 27x10.5x15 quick time pros?

Their site doesn't list a 27" tall full slick.

If they are QTPs, Hoosier's site says they need to be on an 8"-10" rim.

do you REALLY think i've posted every mod on my car, You guys don't know half of what I did this winter, lets gust say I'll light em up from a 35 roll.

thanks Justin, it says economy slick on the side. but i could car less, it was $20

ok so they are circle track F55 compound tires HAHA, F it, I'm running on em, looks like i'm rollin with 2 spares and a jack

Ha....good luck. Circle track compounds are nothing like drag compounds. And those are hards too. :lol:

yea I read about that....I'm gonna have either heat them up all freakin day or idk, they were on a mustang as drag slicks maybe thats why he thinks the car is so badazz

If you heat them up to much, they will lose grip. Like I said, it's a completely different rubber compound. Drag tires are designed to be heated up a decent amount, that makes the surface of the tire sticky and provides good traction. Circle track tires are designed to be used at a constant temperature for extended periods of time.

..........damn.............o well I'll just grab the other set I was gonna use

Not to mention they could be staggered.

they are 2 identical tires

Not necessarily....circle track tires can have the same number printed on the sidewall and have over an inch difference in circumference. A lot of it has to do with the way they were handled when new.

We were always measuring tires when working on Randy99's modified.

o well the tread markers are still deep, you want em?

No, Randy runs dirt. Post them up on racing junk or something, someone might grab them.

o0o sprint cars, I though you mean nascar short track modifieds

:rofl:

your gonna eat that when I get my slips

you should get wider rims then you need and strech the rubber like all the old school VW's do

HAHA nah, I'll just buy a set of DRs

Bubba, I wouldnt mess with Dans car if you happen to line up, your not the only one who has been working on their car this winter.

All I've done is add lots and lots of "unnecessary" weight to my car. :wink:

thats right, your car will probably be slower this year

I'm not afraid to lose

so if your not really shooting for 13s why did you call my truck out in that thread?
