kil-351 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Has anyone tried the new nitto radials??? I was going to use a mickey thompson 255/50/16 but id rather use something smaller like a 235 or 245/45 If anyone knows of a good branded radial that can cop load it'd be great.. If anyone knows who sells them it'd also be great. cheers Julian Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/408385-what-radial-slicks-for-16in-rim-14mile-to-fit-r32-gtr/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

NXTIME Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 The 255/50 MT's are tried and tested, Julian. I'd stick with those. 1.3 60ft's time and time again.

R31Nismoid Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 I can vouch for the Hoosiers as well as being a good choice. They were cheaper than the MT's @ the time i was buying. On an airport surface I could still manage a 1.5 60ft with them @ 30psi in the 275/17 I dropped the pressure to 20psi and next run broke a diff so i can't comment on the 60ft there but it certainly hooked up hard haha Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/408385-what-radial-slicks-for-16in-rim-14mile-to-fit-r32-gtr/#findComment-6515954 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSTA57 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I'm a noob with awd cars and drags. So would you run the slicks at all four? Or just the rear?

kil-351 Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 yea ill be running them at all 4... il see where to get those hoosiers from cause i think the MT's are a little taller and they will go real close to my dry sump near the wheel arch... Ive got a 4WD TH400 so i dont think ill break a diff... if i can get out of the hole with a 1.3 60ft il be wrapped.. need to hit half track at over 140mph and come home Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/408385-what-radial-slicks-for-16in-rim-14mile-to-fit-r32-gtr/#findComment-6524876 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kil-351 Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 Na, getting it caged now and I spun a bearing when I tried to turn it up to 60 pounds so I gotta get Anthony to do rings and bearings and have another go at it.. Poor engine did over 8000km on over 1000 at the treads.... Was due to break something.... I was lucky it didn't throw rods!!! I'm just saving slowly to get this shit done so I'm in no real hurry to get it on the track cause every day out at the track is a couple of grand.
