- A how to use rim screws with drag racing drag slick tires. These billet specialties comp series wheels with Goodyear eagle dragway drag socks is a great combo. In this video I install rim screws into my wheels and talk about how and why. These drag slicks are also equipped with tire tubes for better 60 foot drag race times. These are going on my small block mopar 1968 Dodge Dart drag car.

Such quality construction, love how you get the parts to marry the car every time you change something - thoughtful and awesome!
Thanks bro! Amd thanks for watching
Slowly but surely, gonna be a monster when it's all back together!
Hell ya brother!
I am stunned!!! I thought my Weld Prostars were super lite!!! WOW!!!!! And yes, I told you that you would love them!!!!
Ya billets are lighter! Crazy I know. Thanks for watching
These are just stunning. What a combo. The yellow is friggin awesome
That looks sick... Man that is the perfect wheel/tire combo!
Thanks bro! I dig it! Wish I could run on street lol
Sweet! Really Nice.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Wow , better you than me ! I got a little sick feeling in my gut when you started drilling ! 😂 LoL definitely using up All the available space , looks Great !
It wasn’t easy! But the end result is worth it! Thanks for watching
Good luck with the Good Year's. I run the same size as you and decided to try the Good Years once. Didn't hook as good as Hoosiers. Now I'm back running Hoosiers.
I haven’t run Hoosiers at the track. Always been on mt couple guys run them out here with success. It was the best size for me. Thanks for watching
Thanks for the how-to video, I love the look and tires, I couldn't tell if you were wearing safety glasses when you were drilling but please do, I didnt one time because I said it wouldn't take long to knock out what I was doing but I was wrong, SO be safe please
I did! After the first 2 holes but I did put them on! Thanks for looking out👍🏻
Baby is going to look and hook good in her new shoes.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome Joe《☆》👍✔She's starting to look like an SS/AH car now🖖🤓🏈
Total goals lol. Thanks bud 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Bracket racers are very black and white on tubes. Yes or no is all you get.
If you street race, no prep, back of the track, etc, there is a huge variable with tubes and stiff vs soft sidewall and every car is different. There is no right answer, only what works for your application.
Giving the lower tube inflation rates you'll be using with dragslicks, slick retention screws are a must. Noting worse than shearing a slick sidewall in the traps. What compound # are you using with the Eagles? Good luck with the upcoming season!
You nailed it my man. D5 comp. thanks for watching
Rims look great!
What was the highest recorded HP u ever got with a NA 360 (5.9)?
Thanks bro! Highest on stock stroke was 530 at 6700 NA, check that vid if you haven’t seen it!
Hi mate its Adam from Australia here I am copying your 530 hp build for my valiant but what I would like to know is what can I do differently so that I don't burn out my big end bearings like you did
Thanks heaps Adam
Something I’m doing on my new motor should have the short block back this weekend. Look into lifter valley oiling cross over mod. I will show in vid and talk about it! Stay tuned!
I’m my opinion big tires are unnecessary rotation mass unless your at 2500 hp and up. These days Guys are running 160mph, high 4 seconds with a 28 10.5.
Big tires are cool.
Did you make adapters for your floor jacks to fit the car frame better or is that how you bought them?
Oh ya I made those. Welded aluminum. Good eye!
Dang it now I gotta watch again 😂
Beautiful rums joel what valve stem did you go with? Is it moroso also too.
I’m using Mickey Thompson tubes, stem is attached
@@SimpsonsSpeedShop what are you looking to run with the new motor Joel?
Pete's ws heads came from were? Did he port them? What's the valve sizes Joel any pics of them?
@@johnnybrigham8154 with new motor and set up should be mid 10s for sure on 1/4 mile and sub 5 on my track. Yes Pete’s w2 were ported I put flow numbers on that vid and you can get a look at the ports in my power to manual steering conversion vid. Pretty sure they still a 2.02 valve not 100% tho. Also it’s Joe not Joel lol. Thanks for watching!
Do you need to have them balanced again after putting the screws in?
No. Just send it and if feel it then maybe
I recently purchased a 31x16.50x15 Hoosiers tires? My question is once mounted how much more would it grow? Trying to see if I’m going to have clearance issues before I mount the tires. I’m thinking I should do a 31x14.50x15 tire but if the 16.50 side wall doesn’t grow much I might just keep them any advice thanks
Sorry man that’s a big tire. Not sure how much it will grow. You definitely want some room around it tho!
@@SimpsonsSpeedShop not a problem I’m thinking I will do the 14.50
i am thinking your car should run 1.48 or less sixty foot . What is your elevation again?
Sea level.
money well spent
👍🏻👍🏻
I'm pretty sure tube weighs 5 lb
No change at all the weight 5?lbs. maybe 2
