Default Re: What Tyres should I run

I'd throw a set of Hoosier 14 X 32 X 15's on that thing and go race.. It's a very common size and will last 100 runs.. or until that little gecko screams out "I have a flat tiya!!"... just kidding about the gecko...

Well Geoff, that depends,the guys running comp eliminator prefer to run the narrowest and lightest possible tire, because hard tail econo dragsters run a little quicker with lighter or high growth tires. Goodyear and Hoosier both make light and high growth tires for that purpose.
However if your a bracket or super class racer you can get better consistency on varying track surfaces with the largest tire that will fit on your rims.
I prefer the Hoosiers with the soft side wall on my hard tail S /C dragster but three a lot of ways "to skin that cat"
Good day!

Thanks guys, the issue with the Dragster is we run a lot of air (9lbs) and it gets up on the tyre quick but can suffer a bit at the top end with "not much" tyre on the race track.

So we are looking at a bigger tyre for a better footprint, and thanks for the info.
