Re: Best non drag radial for stock rims?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that tire a summer tire?
I learned the hard way that summer tires S U C K on these cars. Zero traction unless it's a hot summer afternoon and the pavement is sizzling.
I see that you live in Chicago so your weather is even colder than mine. I have gone to the Nitto Motivo because it's offered in 315/35 for the rear and 275/40 for the front, and it has a rubber compound that works MUCH better in cool weather.
In fact, last Saturday night I raced some 392 Hemi cars and a 5.0 Coyote in 48 degree weather and these tires only spun slightly in 1st gear and stuck really well in 2nd and 3rd. On summer high performance tires I wouldn't have even attempted the races. It would have been worthless.
