Guys;

Any recommendations (brand and size) on a set of drag radials for my 1978? The body is bone stock and I am not looking to modify the rear wheel openings...

Thanks!

I've just about finished off my second set of BFG drag radials 275/60/15 on stock 8in aluminum wheels. I had to move the ebrake cable bracket for clearance. Consistent 1.70 60ft times when running 12.40 -12.50 ETs, so it's leaving pretting hard.

I had to screw the rims to the tires....they were hooking that hard. Had M/T slicks on it and not a whole lot of diff. in the 60ft. maybe a 10th.

These little 255/60 MT ET Street radials will do work...



I go 1.51 60's on them...

275/60s also work great and are more common/cheaper.. IF you have enough gear/torque to pull a 28"..

to pull those, I was going to try either the Nitto's or the M/T's Drag Rad's as soon as I wear the BFG out won't be long. Waiting on the weather here in sunny cold a## Ohio. 3.42's, built 2004R @ 26lbs of boost.

MT ET Streets 275-50-R15s work for me - mid 11s.

I would try the 275/60/15 MT ET Street Radial PROs... Those are the hot tire out now... Once again, if you have enough get to pull em...

Micky T's ET streets, I've been hearing good thing about those new M/T's instead of the Nittos.
