Need some Slicks!

Post by RebStew on February 8th 2010, 6:05 am

I'm rounding up parts. My slicks are about 4 years old and not that many runs but I drove them on the street alot and they are getting dry from age. Looking for a new or newer set of 28, 29 inch tall slicks. I was hoping maybe someone had some that they bought and may have been too big or something. No junk. I have that now. 10.5 preferable.

Anyone ever used these stiff sidewall slicks? I've only used wrinkle walls just wondering what people think. Looks like it would be more stable at top end but I'm just wondering how they hook compared to a wrinkle wall. The guys said he'd sell me these for $250.00

Really good prices but the kind I need that they have on sale won't work. 33X15's for $120.00 are super cheap but that is way too tall for the bird. I had a set of 31" tall slicks on it one time and it looked really cool but when they swelled they rubbed my front flare on the 1/4. I came close to trimming them but bought a set of 29's
Here are the 29's on the back. I'm pretty lucky compared to most. I can get a big tire on the back without much trouble..

You just wanted a reason to show your air-brushed looking photo for your bird!
