A slick, what else? Or are you looking for a drag radial?

Good luck getting them!
I've been waiting three weeks for mine! Backordered everywhere. If anyone knows anyone who has them in stock, PLEASE let me know.

BFG G Force Drag TAs are about the best DR out there. Next you need to decide on sizing. What RPM do you typically finish the 1/4 at, and in what gear. Also take into account future mods you have planned so you don't end up with a size that will hamper you as your car gets faster.
