Are they drag slicks or race car tires....

 

[flathead31coupe]

I have a 66 dart mild 440 with a 4:10 gear..
Was thinking they might be a good size to start.

What's that number under the tag? Is there a part number so to speak on the sidewall?

Closest thing they have: JLXXA

Roundy round tires I'm guessing.

Thanks...that sux...��

Those don't look like drag slicks to me.

 

[flathead31coupe]

Just my luck.....how do you tell

Just my luck.....how do you tell

I tell by looking at the material. Those look like stiff sidewalls and even the area that contacts the asphalt looks stiffer than a drag slick.

Thanks...

if you own them, there is no reason you could not use them at the drags. I ran a pair of Mccreary speedstar dirt track tires street and strip for years, and snapped a 30 spline axle at the track after running 12.5 seconds

Wow really...cool yes I bought them without doing my home work... 100.00

If they are a slick it will do the trick I have used roundy round tires at the drag strip many times cause I could not afford Racemasters You just have to heat them up a little more

I know a few guys running treaded American Racer tires (dirt) at the drags and love them.
One is an 11.5@116 Coronet street car with full exhaust, he won't run anything but American Racer.

I agree on the Mcrearys, I had a set along time ago on my 360 scamp which had no traction. I put a used set on and they worked awesome.
