Slicks for 16's
Slicks for 16's First off, Im going to admit I know nothing about slicks...
I'm looking for a set of track tires (1/4 mile) for 16" stock swirl rims off a 93-94 TA...what's the biggest size you can run without rubbing?

Depends on what size tire you want, 26" or 28"
M/T E/T streets:
26x10.5x16
26x11.5x16 (never seen this one on a car, you might want to give M/T a call just to see if it will work)
28x11.5x16
M/T E/T streets:
26x10.5x16
26x11.5x16 (never seen this one on a car, you might want to give M/T a call just to see if it will work)
28x11.5x16

The M/T drag radial is, for its size, pretty much the heaviest tire ever made. Extra rotating mass is not good for racing. The BF Goodrich and Hoosier drag radials are much lighter.

Good point.
M/T E/T street = 22lbs
M/T Drag radial = 29lbs
14lbs roatating mass may or may not be a big factor to you. It will only equal a half of a tenth or so.
I'm assuming by the pic in your sig, these are going to be track duty only.

including:
'00 Supercharged SS
'95 Z28 w/530hp 383 Stroker
'00 Z28 on a 150 shot/bolt ons
'94 TA that will probably end up with Nitrous this year
just needed to know my options before we make a final decision
