What size drag radial or slick are you guys using on 16" rims.

if you're 2g, some people are using 26x9.5x16.
I'm gonna be using 26x9.5x15 with slips for this coming season

you will need wheel spacers and extended studs. I'm going with 20mm spacers

On my 1g I am using 26x9.5x16 QTP on all 4.

So it fits properly without spacers, also is your car lowered?

If you look around here on this site, you should find all the info you need as with 16" rims, slick/DR options are pretty limited for us. Hoosier QTP's, 26" tall, bias ply is a common tire but you want to be making some decent power for that tall of a tire (recommended 450awhp+). For DR's there a couple options, Hoosier makes one in a 225/50/16 (supposed to be same compound as the QTP's). Then I believe MT makes one, forget the actual size, something like 235 or 245 I believe.

Nitto 555r drag radials, 225/50/16. However, i believe they no longer make this size anymore.

I believe they were out of production when I was looking for DR's..... 4 years ago
