Sticky compound.

STIFF sideway. They are designed for road racing. They will more than likely just spin if you try to hit them off the line too hard.

Thanks, looking at the BF Goodrich 295/35-18 drag tire on ebay, just need to decide on sizing. Hope those fit.

I have them on my car right now and I love them. They are great on the street. With my 346 they hooked great. They still hook well with the 408 from a first gear roll but I doub't i'll be cutting any 1.6 60 ft's.
