Drag Radial Question

green92gt · 07-01-2001, 11:23 PM

What is the best pressure to run Drag radials at? I have 275x50x15. I am very unhappy with their perfomace last friday night--totally blew them away! I thought I did a good burnout like I was told since they were brand new but they did not hook at all. What size backspacing on your wheels do you have inorder to run this size tire? I have 5.5 and they rub on the inside. Hammer time?!?!

Don't know about the backspacing, but run 10-15 psi in your tires at the track. A friend of mine went from 2.1 60's to 1.9's when he went from 25 to 12.
