I dont know anyone that runs that small of a slick...

Not knowing your fender or suspension clearence you could maybe get away with the following.

Hoosier DOT Drag Radial (Slick)
225/50/15
17310

MickeyThompson ET Street Radial
26x9.5R15
3752R

Edit: Should have asked before... Are you making power? Slicks dont instantly make your car run faster...

I'm just sayin...it's gonna be a slow car, slicks or not, people are just going to laugh at him when they see it with slicks on it and then pull those times.

haha that definitely goes to show that you cant judge by track times. that stupid z would walk most cars.


as far as the jetta, 23x8x15, or 24x8x15 will work for you. granted you don't need them yet, and you probably wont for a while. slicks compensate for a bad driver in the beginning. some people run and grab slicks cause they keep spinning off the line in their underpowered car. the trick is to learn how to launch. then when you are the limit of what street tires can do at the track, get slicks.

Anyway. I just wanted to man up and apologize for what I did. I was a complete @$$hole. I talked to John today, and told him I was WAY out of line. He and you guys had every right to be mad at me, and what I did/said. Truth be told, I feel really bad about it; as I should. Again man, im sorry for what I said. Just uncalled for, and plain out wrong.
