Drag Strip Tires
I was wondering if any of you has taken your g8x to the drag strip and what tires and sizes are using for better time sheets. Currently using Nankangs ar1 305/30/20 not bad but could be better.

Those ar1's are a road racing/track day tire with stiff sidewalls. Not really designed for drag racing. If you are more focused on drag racing you should check out nitto's drag radials.
The nt555rII's come in a variety of sizes that would work. https://www.nittotire.com/competitio...g-radial-tire/ |

What you will be looking for will be similar to 18158 from Hoosier. 18 inch 28 inches tall 10 inches wide. You are going to have to go down in diameter from 20's.

The nitto drag radials come in 285/35/19. You could run these on the stock 19" wheels that are used on the front. The overall height/diameter would be the same as the michelin's on the stock 20" wheels but you get a slightly taller side wall. I may give these a try.

So I ordered 2 of these, dirt cheap worth it https://momo.com/en-us/momo-rf-serie...ara-black.html
Going to run a 20mm spacer with a set of m/t street s/s 285/35 19 just for this season. Will get me into rmrw. |
