Well if your profile is current you have no reason to even be looking at drag radials, as you have a 2.2 with an intake and exhaust.

Spend the money elsewhere. Or even just a good performance tire, you don't need a drag tire.

Agreed, I'm assuming that you have Eagle LS's on your car right now, am I right? My best 1/8 mile time, back when my car still had its stock exhaust and interior (gutted now), was a 10.105 at around 70 mph, with the Eagle LS's still on the car. I had to air them down to 19.5 psi to get rid of the wheel hop, sure, but hey, not a bad time for these tires with a rookie drag racer behind the wheel. Drag radials will only slow you down at your level of mods, as they are too sticky, you'll bog hard as soon as you dump the clutch.

Even then... A good summer performance tire should be good enough. Going to the track 5-10 times doesn't mean your ready for DR's. My 2 cents
