I have made a couple trips to the local drags but am unable to hook with my setup which isn't suprising!!!
I'd like to purchase some rear rims that I can swap out for drag days. I'd like them to be BLACK! Not to expensive
I am thinking 16" or 17"
Also what tires should I run?
#'s from one of my slips:
.080 Reaction
2.226 60ft
13.726 1/4
103.87
Pretty sad for my mods huh? lol
I have some wheel hop in 1st gear. I don't launch at high rpm. If I do the car really wheel hops and spins through 1st and 2nd.

Look at the Top-25 and you will find plenty of street tires running better than 2.0 seconds.

Are you sure you want to jump to a drag radial without more practice?

I have done a total of 10 runs with my Nismo and I have tried launching several diff ways. Ultimately I have to launch at low RPM to reduce wheel hop and spinning or I end up with a horrible 60ft and in the low 14's!

What kind of tires do you have on those Volks? If you say Nankang, I am closing my membership.
