Default New Drag Radial from Good Year.

I just read about it, and thought it may be of interest to a few as it looks promising, especially with all there years experience in racing/drag racing. No photos yet, but here is a link to tell you to call your dealer.

The ones I saw in the APril 2006 Vette magazine were ona set of 1993 Corvette 17x9.5 rims. SO they may be available in 17's, which I cant imagine why they wouldnt be as that would be there bigger market.
