I have done some research and these drag radials look to be the best for my car. Who has used them and how do you like them? Does the sidewall flex enough not to wheel hop? What 60' times are you getting?

They will work great...right up until you poop your driveline all over the track. There's a reason almost no dsmers use drag radials. If you are competing in a class that forces you to use radials you would probably be better off with snow tires.

I think they'll work fine for you since you're auto. I don't see a need for a slick in an auto DSM unless you're knocking on 9's.

Oh ok, auto will help you not break things. I don't know if it's my phone or what but I can't seem to find a mod list, I'm guessing you want these for street/strip and are sticking with 17 because you have something like brembos that limit your rim choices? They seem like good tires that will work for your situation, if you are able to go down to 15in rims(no brembos) you could probably find a set of lightly used rota and m&h street strip for the same price as a new set of these drag radials if your patient. Then just swap when you go to track, driving a lot on the drag radials will probably wear them out quick. Another option to consider.

I can fit a small wheel. I just saw those drag radials and figured they would be perfect as I don't want to switch to slicks all the time. My eclipse is a built auto awd with a welded center diff and should make around 800awhp. The axles, driveline, T-case and rear end are all stock so I wont be launching to hard. Is it really worth swapping slicks every pass? My car should run 9's all day. I only have about 2 months left of driving before it gets too cold. I can run street tires but will spin bad.
