Drag Radials-which Are Best For High Hp
Hey guys I need some more traction...Im looking at different drag radial options for my '07 Z06.
Im running bfg 18s now and its not enough anymore even from a roll.
Ive got some 17" inch wheels coming for the Z06-I figured Id give that a try.
I was considering MT et street radial 275/40/17s or 315/35/17
and I was looking at M&H 325/45/17
How are the M&H compared to the MT stuff?
Does anyone make a 17" full slick?
17s are about the smallest I think I can go without grinding calipers-Id rather not go there on the Z06.
Ive been down that road with the Zr1 and have 15" on the rear...60 foots killer 1.40.

If you dont care about how fast they will wear, the mt et streets are the way to go in a 315. the bfgs are prolly the second best, so hopefully the mt's will be enough, the 17" wheel will help some too

I ran the hoosiers on my old '99 z28. They hooked very well and were lighter than the MT ET street radials. Depending on the size you need, that may be the limiter for what youre needing. They do make the hoosier dragradials in a 315/35/17 and thats what I used.
