Fun run sometime at SDR? preferably on a DOT tire, but either way is fine by me. I believe you run similar times to what I'm after, so it could be fun

the closest thing i can find is a 225/50/16 Hoosier DOT radial.

they aren't cheap, but they look like they would work pretty decently for you guys. a 225 isn't very hard to fit either, so I would consider them.
Who knows?
thats cool with me. IDk when I'll be down there. I'm like 30 minutes from Commerce. but we can try to arrange something. I need to find a good drag radial. I'm running falken azenis right now and can't really hook at all. my times have been off without a decent tire but we can work something out.Fun run sometime at SDR? preferably on a DOT tire, but either way is fine by me.

cool man, right now I'm on 215/45/16's so we shall see whats up. from looking at what others have said about your car it should be quick.
in a drag radial?
Who knows?
Yes... I just want something to put on the gold wheels so I don't have to swap the wheels to run radials.
Back to being stock and slow
I want some too!!
yea, with my drop there is no way I could tuck them. looks like I'm picking up a set of spare wheels to run at the track.
yeah its a bitch to find radials and slicks in the sizes that would be truly convenient for our cars. i would love to find some good 16" slicks, but I have no idea where to find any. I've heard them mentioned before but no idea where to get them. A 24.5" x 9" x 16" slick would be fucking PERFECT imo. i get to have traction without sacrificing my brakes.
Who knows?
absolutely. IF you find a 16in its for RWD application usually. its like they don't care about the FWD crowd.
are you running a big brake kit or anything?
Who knows?
no, stock brake set up. but I bought a set of 24.5/8/13's on steelies just to find out I can't fit 13's over my brakes unless I buy a set of lenso's or similar. also i have 16in rims I want to daily dr's on but no luck on finding any. its just annoying.
how in the world can you tolerate stock brakes with decent power?? i would be terrified that the car wont stop quick enough lol! hell with the wilwood 12" rotors and 4-pot calipers i'm STILL nervous trying to get the thing to stop after a good pull.
Who knows?
haha, good pads and rotors. I've tracked the car before (road course) and it held up good. I haven't had a reason to second guess my brakes yet. and having to run 17's all the time would kill me.
pussy! brakes dont make you any faster!
I can squeak by with 16's, but I like these 17's since they are forged, and they were a friend's so they have some sentimental value.
Who knows?
I feel ya. I doubt I'll ever go bigger on the brakes. IF I reach my power goals then I'll need all the sidewall I can get.
yeah but they keep my ass alive to race again!
Who knows?
