Hi All,
Since my new National Dragster arrived last week it’s time to start thinking about the stage car and this season. One area that needs to be corrected this year is new tires. The old ones served me well but they are beat now.
I currently run MT 29.5x10.5x15 Drag ET’s. I’m very happy with them. My dilemma is if I should go with the “W” tire. The “W” tire is about an inch wider. My current “non-W” tire is tight but fits nicely under the car. I’m also going to be doing some sort of suspension work, either Wolfe or HR bar, still deciding. Anyway, is anyone out there having any clearance problems running the “W” tire? I know some people that are running them, like Jack Cotton and they love them. After seeing what Jack was doing with the “W” tire and Wolfe bar last year, I think traction is not a problem!
I just don’t want to buy them and then shred them on the quarters.
My frame is notched and quarters are rolled.
Thanks for any input.
