[QUOTE="mpe331lx, post: 9511434, member: 36385"] OK, Im one that plays with fire sometimes.....for exaple the times in my sig were with absoluetly no safetey equipment but a helmet. I dont condone doing that, or think that it was O.K, but It was my DD at the time and I refused to put a cage and harness in it. Now it has all that shizz, but I don't drive it as often either. I usually run 165/80/r15s (same as vw bug 165r/15s). Cheapie, no name shit like nankang, nexum....or whatever the local shop can get. I drive them on the street constantly and front skinnies wear quickly weather they are street radials or dedicated drag tires. I know I SHOULD get a set strictly for the track, but I drive a 100 mile round trip there and back, and its already bad enough swapping to the slicks on the spot. One thing about tire speed ratiings. Those ratings are for [I][B]sustained[/B][/I] speeds over XXX, or up to XXX. A 9, 10, 11, or 12 second burst to 140 or so, is not going to put that much heat in the tire. [/QUOTE]
