Best Drag Slicks

[pedro]

I need to no which slick is best to use at a Drag Strip MT or Hoosirr or BFG which rims sizes to go with 16-17-18???

Smaller the rim the better because it allows more sidewall. Most use 16's as far as street legal slicks go but there has been alot of 15's making the scene with drag radials on them.

As far as best I think it comes down to preference. I have a set of MT but will be trying the Hoosiers next.

Does BFG make a DOT Slick? Their 18" drag radials are pretty good once they get a little wear on them.

Thanks!I check Ebay and there is a set of MT 28-14.50x16 with CCW Rims.

I have the CCW's. Dunno if the 14.5 is gonna fit. I know to get a 28" tire under there it takes a little tweaking of the fenderwell I believe for when it grows at the other end.

I have a pair of CCW's rims that are 17x13 maybe ill try to get BFG drag radials

The ones on Ebay are M&H. The new 16x13.5 M&H slick is a dead hook monster. Better be ready with lots of HP or bullet proof half shafts. I sold mine because I couldn't get any wheel speed. You need some slippage.
