    Best 18" tire for Hot Rod Drag Week (driving and racing on same tire) ?

    After getting input from here and a few other places, I've decided that the MT ET Street SS size 305/40/18 is my best option for driving and racing on the same tire. I'll follow up this fall with some Drag Week results. Thanks again, David

    I think you are correct about the MT ET street SS being the best option for my situation. I'll also read your balancing method. Thanks again, David

    Best 18" tire for Hot Rod Drag Week (driving and racing on same tire) ?

    The 305/45/18 Nitto NT05R tires I'm using now have a little better traction than the Nitto 555R drag radials. I'm sure I could drive and race on them for the entire Drag Week, just looking for something a little better for the track and still be able to drive in the rain if necessary. For...

    Best 18" tire for Hot Rod Drag Week (driving and racing on same tire) ?

    Thanks for info and picture. What kind of 60ft and 1/4 mile times were you able to get with the ET Street SS tires ? How much power was the car making ? David

    Jim, What drag radial are you using and what is your best ET with them ? Thanks, David

    Best 18" tire for Hot Rod Drag Week (driving and racing on same tire) ?

    I would be very comfortable doing that because I know it isn't going to grip well enough to break anything. I'm just curious to see what the car will run with a better gripping tire. Thanks, David

    Jim, Thanks for doing the math. Sounds a lot better than I expected and makes me feel a lot better about using this size tire. David

    Best 18" tire for Hot Rod Drag Week (driving and racing on same tire) ?

    I know the 305/45/18 ET Rs would be much better on the track but was under the impression they are very sketchy if not dangerous if driven in the rain. Glad to hear someone thinks they aren't that bad. David

    Best 18" tire for Hot Rod Drag Week (driving and racing on same tire) ?

    Not really wanting to do serious racing on my first time attending Drag Week, so planning to keep the stuff needed for racing to a minimum. My son is going with me and I also plan to register him as a second driver so we can compete with each other for low ET at each track. Planning to use the...

    Best 18" tire for Hot Rod Drag Week (driving and racing on same tire) ?

    I'm planning to race my 2016 Challenger Hellcat in Hot Rod Drag Week this year. I've got a set of custom rear wheels that are 18" x 9.5" that match the stock fronts, and trying to determine the best tire for driving on as well as racing on. I've currently got a set of Nitto NT05R 305/45/18 tires...

    18” replica rim

    I've got a set of 18" Hellcat forged wheels that were custom built by Alcoa for a guy over on Hellcat.org that were never used. He only had 4 wheels made and I got the last pair about 2 years ago.

    Thanks, I've had a few Mopars over the years, but the other car currently in my garage is a heavily modified 91 Ford Thunderbird SC that I've had since 1993. Hope that's okay with the group.

    Thanks, I love this car. Especially fun after doing the Livernois S900 93 octane package. Makes 750 rwhp and drives like stock until you stand on the go fast pedal. David

    Hello everyone. I've had my Hellcat since April 2016 and I just stumbled across this forum last week. Here are a few pictures of my lightly modded car. Thanks, David
