I just got my drag radials in the mail, and the tread is directional, but which way? No indicators on the sidewall. I assume you want the center arrow looking tread to be pointing the way the tire rotates, but just checking.

 

Yes tread points towards the front of the car.

 

BTW Nitto DRs do have directional markers. At least, mine do...maybe I got a special pair?

 

Thanks grip, thats what i thought

Dave, mine dont!!! lol, i looked all over for it and couldnt find it. Maybe i got the special pair. lol.

 

Jared, maybe 17s are different, because my 16s have markers too.

 

Solomon-
Thats a possibility too. Never thought of that...less sidewall, less space to write stuff.

Anyways, whats been up with your car? I used to pass you every once in awhile over near colerain but i havent seen you for a long time.

 

I actually just took the Z out today for the first time in a couple weeks. You know how snowy roads + Z28s do not mix well.

When some nicer weather comes around, I'll be out and about again. I'll also be installing a few parts (panhard rod, remote bottle opener, purge, etc.).

Nitto DRs are nice. But they do not like n2o torque spikes very much, even when hot.

 

Ok, i am a TOOL!

I took off the shipping label, which was just a little over 4 inches or so thick, wrapped around the tire, and guess what, directional markers! lol.

Who would have thought that they would have put the shipping lable over the markers on BOTH tires, what are the odds honestly?

 

I was wondering cuz I my 17's have the directional markers. Glad you found them.
