Where can I buy drag radials in Montgomery County? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

vernal · 07-06-2011, 12:10 AM

Does anyone know of a store where I can buy drag radials and have them installed in Montgomery County, MD? Frederick would be my 2nd choice, I'm in Gaithersburg. I'm hoping not to have to mail-order them.

Also, does anyone have any personal opinions about dr's? I'm leaning towards bfg's, possibly nittos. Not liking the look of the treads on the mt's.

Thanks!

I have Mickey Thompson drag radials and they rock.

I bought mine off of Summit Racing. They were the cheapest out there.

Only place I know of is Speed Unlimited in Morning side off Allentown Rd... Either that or hit up Perry ( PTS ) on here... He's great to work with and cheaper than Speed Unlimited...

Thanks, all! I was looking for a little extra insurance quickly, but it all worked out all right. I should wear a gag when I'm drinking, sometimes.

Daniel - nice r/t! People are gonna start chucking stuff at you without warning, yelling "Quick! Catch!", just to check your reflexes! I hope to run into you again at the track (just not in the opposite lane) so I can hear/see that combo!

BTW, do you drive w/DR's every day, or just put them on when necessary?

Beescuz - No offense meant about the mt's. They don't look as rain-friendly as I would prefer, and the weather recently forced me to look in a different direction. Now the urgency has passed, and I'm going to look again.

Yup dont get caught in the rain with the MT quite challenging. I just use them for the track only.
