Default Advice on drag slicks>

Hey guyz, I have a set of Volk TE37 18x10.5 +22. I used them in the past for the drag strip and have decided its time to put a much larger tire and switch from a drag radial to a Drag Slick. I was previously Running 305/35/18 KDW2 Drag Radials. I know nothing about drag Slicks, Not even how they Size they size them. What type of drag slick do you suggest i run on this tire ( if there is one that would fit) and what is the largest i can run? My fenders are rolled. I do realize that most people run them on 15" wheels but i have a stoptec BBK and this is the smallest Wheel i can fit that will clear the BBK. Thanks for any advice guyz.

There are no slicks that will fit an 18" wheel. Unless you can easily swap out brakes, you're going to be reduced to using drag radials.

Drag racing tire recommendations are in the drag racing forum. Not sure if you can find slicks for 18 inch wheels.
