How much air do you guys run in your drag radials

Green92LX · 03-16-2001, 11:00 AM

I finally got my a$$ down to Town Fair and got my BFG's put on my 92...

He put 15 LBS in them, cause I wasn't sure what is the best to run at...I need this baby to hook a LITTLE better

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your response, but judging by your sig, my car is a little more modified than yours...that isn't a shot...( sorry if it sounds like it)

When my 92 was stock I ran 30 LBS on the street on 275/50's and I couldn't ask for better grip, but its a little different now...

By the way, I'm running 255/50/16's on the ponies
