brand new pair. Got them last night. They would work on my car, but look stupid so I refuse to mount them. They still have the stickers on them. These tires measure 13" wide. The are toyo’s “street legal drag radial”.

$300 for the pair. Thats cheaper then what I paid, 2 days ago for them.

Well it’s not amde for drag racing, and it doesn’t mention on Toyo’s site anything about it being a drag tire.

A street-legal competition radial is more proper. I know brakes and tires, and that’s about it lol.

The RA1’s are one of their very popular track tires, the TQ is their new drag radial. That being said, I’m sure some of the corvette guys would love these.

last time I checked, the clock is still counting the same way. Correct? So, whats the difference?

they are both forms of competitive driving. I can squish the rubber on these tires with my finger. The same thing I can do to my MT’s and the same thing I did to nicks M and H’s.

no they arent mounted and im not going to mount them just to take them off.

they wont fit on my car with the current wheels without a mini tub or a wheel spacer.

the only way to make these tires look good with my current wheels is to narrow up the rear end more (2" on each side) and tub it. Then these tires would be sitting flush with the fenders.
