bfg or nitto drags, anything with a low treadwear rating, a friend of mine had decent results with paradas

Re:HMT huddle time

I really havent seen that bigger rims make a damn bit of diffrence. you need wider rims and stiffer engine mounts to get decent traction.

Re:HMT huddle time

BF Goodrich g-Force T/A Drag Radial ? will this cure my problem you think, ive told people my setup and i know it doesnt seem like alot of power but my tires are out of control , i dont get any grip on 1st gear and im not exagerating when i say im hardley getting any on 2nd gear.

who moved this topic?....anyway, id still say to adjust your driving somewhat to get better tracion off the line, but a drag radial would definitely help as well

Re:HMT huddle time

Id take Exsta 712's over regular *** radials any day.
Bang for the buck? The Kum-hoes 712, Azenis, Bridgestone RE730's, BFG KD or KDW.
Piradas are overrated and overpriced. I had the chance to drive them back to back against cheaper BFG's (not the KD or KDW) on a cone course, and they were same, just a little bit better turn-in but same maximum grip.

Re:HMT huddle time

if you already have kumho 712's try them. I have 205/40ZR16's on my crx. they offer decent grip. 220 tread wear. a/a traction. I get wheel hop now if i do a hard launch. (im not boosted)
