drag radials

does anyone have any experience with drag radials as compared to slicks? or drag radials by themselves? are they truly very sticky at the track?

Most drag radials are made of a soft compound which yes makes them more sticky than touring tires. Yes, slicks are the best at the track for obvious reasons. What else are you looking for here?

Apparently those wheels are only 6" wide. BF Goodrich makes some really good drag radials, but I believe they are pretty limited in size range. Tirerack has some that might be what you are looking for.

Hope that helps.

sorry to be so nitpicky, but actually i was asking about slicks. yeah i know about the BFG drag radials, and i am probably going to get those, or the nitto nt555's, but only if there are no slicks available in that size. thanks though.

so do they make slicks that will fit the 15 x 6" millennia wheels? whenever i search for slicks, i find weird sizes.
