              Comments about g-Force T/A Drag Radial:

              I have a 1980 Z28 with a big block pushing 600 hp and before i put B.F.G drag radials on i couldn't get any traction, now it will still spin obviously but 100% better. Haven't tried them on the track yet but soon, i'm sure with a very low air pressure and heat them up they will give a good launch. I'm impressed so far!

              Comments about g-Force T/A Drag Radial:

              The BF Goodrich drag radials performed as advertised. They need to be heated like a conventional slick to get the best hook. I used them on my stock automatic 1965 GTO and they performed 100%. Make sure you get the proper size for your horsepower and application for the best result. Forget wear and fuel efficiency, this is a racing tire ~ and a very good one.

              Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

                    I used this product at the track.. and daily use on the street

                    at the track they wheel hopped and didnt give great traction

                    on the street i could not tell a difference from normal tires

                    The Mickey Thompson drag radial performed much better

                    The sizes and/or speed ratings listed may vary slightly from the specified OE size shown on the vehicle placard. Your local Tire Dealer, as a trained professional, will provide the required assistance to install the tire listed by: 1. Notifying the owner if the replacement tires are different in speed rating than the OE tires and the maximum speed capability of the vehicle is limited to the lower speed rated tires. 2. Determine if any inflation pressure adjustments are necessary with the alternate listed size.

                    Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) is for a tire only (i.e., excluding services such as mounting, balancing and tire disposal) and is applicable for the contiguous United States. Actual pricing may vary based on retailer, region, tire size and other factors. Retailers are free to set individual prices. Please check with your local BFGoodrich tire dealer for pricing near you.

                    LL = Light Load
                    TT = Traditional Tread
                    NT = New Tread

                    >> The sizes shown are average design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. Some tires may vary from this value by +/-3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter), and +/-4% of the section width.
                    >> Section width varies approximately 0.2" (5mm) for every 0.5" change in rim width.
                    >> Tread patterns are often tuned to accomodate different tire widths. Tires for a particular dimension of a given tireline may vary in appearance from the tire shown in the photograph.

                    WARNING: Serious or fatal injury may result from tire failure due to underinflation or overloading. To ensure correct air pressure and vehicle load, refer to vehicle owner's manual or tire information placard on the vehicle. Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper mounting. Only tire professionals should mount tires and they should never inflate beyond 40 psi to seat the beads. Before mixing types of tires in any configuration on any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle owner's manual for its recommendations.

                    DANGER: Never mount a 16" diameter tire on a 16.5" rim.
                    DANGER: Never mount a 17" diameter tire on a 17.5" rim.

                    Important Note: The g-Force T/A Drag Radial is a special-use product designed for competitive drag racing applications. As such, the following precautions must be followed when using the product.

                    On the Drag Strip:
                    Never inflate the tire to less than 12 psi.
                    Do not use screws to hold the tire to the rim.

                    On the Street:
                    These tires have a reduced tread depth when new, and a tread rubber compound optimized for straight-line grip. As such, they will wear out much sooner and offer less wet grip when compared to normal passenger-car tires. Therefore,
                    Observe tire-wear condition often.
                    Do not use the tires on the street when the tread depth wears to less than 2/32nds inch.
                    Reduce speeds in wet conditions and whenever any standing water is present.

                    • You need to know your vehicle's options to find out the original size of the tires for your vehicle because automobile manufacturers often use different wheel and tire sizes for different variations of a specific vehicle.If you do not know your vehicle's options, check one of these places:<br><br>1. The original sales invoice or window sticker when you bought the vehicle. <br>2. Your vehicle's Owner's Manual, which will sometimes identify your vehicle's options.<br>3. Look on the vehicle itself. Some vehicles have a decal or lettering that indicates the options located on the side or rear of the vehicle.

                    • Find the exact tire quickly using your tire size. Check your owner's manual or tire sidewall to find the required specifications.

                      Knowing your tire size can help save time at the tire retailer. It also enables you to make an informed tire purchase.<br><br>You can find your vehicle's original equipment tire size in one of the following places:<br>1.

                    • You can determine your tire type by looking at the tire's designation on the sidewall of your tire. The following describes the differences between the tire type designations:<br><br> P-Metric: A uniform designation of tire sizes in metric measurements. A typical P-Metric tire is P205/70R14 93S. <br><br>European Metric: This system was a conversion of the numeric system from inches to millimeters. The aspect ratio appears in the size designation in most cases where it is other than 82. A typical European Metric tire is 185/70R14 88S <br><br>Light Truck-Metric: This system is used for light truck tires, and it mirrors the P-Metric system used for passenger tires. A typical Light Truck-Metric tire is LT245/75R16 120R. <br><br>Light Trucl High Flotation: This type is for light truck tires with lower sidewalls and wider treads that yield better traction on surfaces such as sand and soft soil found in watery, off-road situations.
