What Tire is everyone running here?
(there doesnt seem to be a specific tire forum, so this seemed like a good place for it)
I'm running BF Goodrich Radial T/A 235/60/15. Handle the road better than the Goodyear Eagle GT II's i had on before.

Radial T/A's :kekeke: :rofl:
check out yokohama S/T's (I think thats what they are called)
I've always run yoko Avid V4's in the past
a friend of mine used to do lap time racing and swears by yokohama
right now I'm running General UMP's
they were cheap and the tire guy gave me a smoking deal, and I heard good things from a couple people,
been pushing my car hard through some corners and I like them, but I think next time around I'll run yokos

i thought radial t/a's were a good match for these cars? i've never liked yoko's in the past, but i havent run their tires for about 5 years now...maybe they've changed.

BFG Gforce KDWS
Radial t/a's here.
I have huge side wall so my cornering isnt that great. Good drag tires though.

Ive run several different tires in the past
Currently Im running BFG G-Force KDW's, Im very happy with their performance. They're very sticky and extremely predictable in the corners

BFG radial TA's are the worst tire for drag racing. one of the the cheapest tires you can get

can't say I've heard of anybody having problems with radial T/A's but they get terrible traction wet and dry, and they are cheap to buy
I had a couple 265 radial t/a's on my car for about a week once, I could spin them in third with my 245 yokohama's I could barely break them in second

huh?
mine are like 265/65/15. fucking huge sidewall! when i deflate them to 22psi i find that they work great at MRP

well if u are not having traction issues with the BFG radial TA's than you're lucky. i agree that they are a pretty good daily driver tire and they are cheap to buy
