Got me some slicks for $39$ ..woo hoo!!!!
 
Yeah so i got these for some enkie wheels i found at the junkyard. the wheels are 14x6 and i figure i could use these for some drag action at the track. Thanks for the find MIke!

hell yeah , i got mine for about 25 bucks off ebay, but they're circle track slicks, i've talked to people that have used circle track slicks and they said they were able to pull 1.8 60 ft's with them, so i'm happy with that for 25 bucks ;D

Yeah but a set of bad slick will actually launch worse than regular tires. Remember, the life of a slick is based on heat cycles, not mileage

im pretty sure these are a DOT approved/autocross/road race tire. they should still do pretty good at the drag strip, if you heat them properly. for $39 its well worth it I think. its for sure gonna be better than your average tire.

I got mine for 25 buck. Shipping was shitty but hey. They were used but the wear dipples look like new and I gave them a heat cycle to test them and they were nice and gummy, not cooked. Not bat for Hossiers!

Anyways, I say Good Buy if all goes well!

There's alot of misinformation going on in this thread.

Autocross tires are ---- on the drag strip, they're too hard to lay any useful contact patch.
Drag slicks are flexible to get a big contact patch on the ground.

Re:Got me some slicks for $39$ ..woo hoo!!!!
 
if you want to get a few runs out of them just burn the ---- out of em in the burnout box. if you heat them up a WHOLE LOT they'll stick pretty decently, but only last for a little bit.

Re:Got me some slicks for $39$ ..woo hoo!!!!

can't go wrong for the price. And if he says they are street legal, and look like that, they must not have any life left in them :-\
