One of them was dead (cracked sidewall), but the other is actually still fine and has plenty of dot left on it. Kept as a spare.
Eventually, may have to buy new wheels and taller slicks. (22x8-15's or 22x8-13's for more sidewall) Wonder if it might help more than hurt? Ever play with them, Dennis? |
No you were right on buying the last pair of 20x8"x14" slicks...the pair I bought were part of the last three 20x6x14's that they had. Thank GOD I kept my factory mags, because my Cragar's are too wide for those skinny things, and when my 1yr old 8" slicks wear out, that's when I'm going to have to use the DOT slicks, or else buy some smaller/larger wheels that'll allow me to use those other tires that Dennis spoke of. However, after the races I attended in Sept. where I didn't do burnouts for a change, I think I may be alright with those taller tires in the future...heck if Mustangs can run 8-9sec quarters with them, my 15sec ride should be able to hook good with 'em given that they're a taller tire than those slicks are???
