Mickey Thompson Drag Radials Almost New!
$250 plus shipping!!
Same thing as my other sale. I traded in the Z, so these are for sale. I paid over $500 for the pair and I made 3 passes on them as you can tell they are still new.
The traction you get from these is AMAZING!! Way better than the nitto 555R's I had.
They are 265/40R18 and fit nicely on stock rims..

No one interested? I paid over $500 for these in July 2010... less than 500 miles on them... I had a 2006 350z with stock touring rims and they fit perfectly. They still have all the sprue nubs on them!!
The grip is AmAzInG!!

On an NA car you would be looking at closer a best of 1.80. An HR with gears might be able to pull a bit better, ,but with IRS, lack of power, and lower gearing it is extremely difficult to go below 1.8 on our cars (NA) with DR's/Slicks. Drag radials are renown for breaking axles, but this can be prevented by properly pre-loading the drivetrain. I made over 100 passes on MT DR's last season without an issue.

1.7 was with nitrous, but when I was off the juice I could raise the RPM's to about 4000 RPMS and launch without wheel spin. When I had my nittos i couldnt do that past 2500 RPM's without spinning

Absolutely correct.. you would go from a 2.3 to a 1.8 with just tires....that's what happened to me...Probably the best bang for buck MOD besides Nitrous.
If I get back in a Z. All I am going to do is get 100shot and Mickey Thompson Drag Radials..
