What are the tires that everyone seems to be running for Dirt Drags? They look similar to the mini Desert Trak's, but they aren't. Anybody know? Or better yet, what would you recommend?

 

There is a shop around here (yes we have ONE in BFE) that mainly does banshee hop ups and all they run are Pro Wedges. I am not sure but I think they are made by Ohutso, however its spelled. They seem to work well for the dirt drags. I saw a polaris run a 2.2 in 200' on them.

 

yeah pro wedges are the best for dirt drags everyone uses them

 

Who manufacture's these tires, I couldn't find anything about them on the web? Thanks.

 

Ohtsu is the brand, just like many of the OEM Honda tires. I ordered my Pro Wedges from the local Honda dealer. Most people actually run Pro Wedge II's, but I run the Pro Wedge 501's. Same tread pattern, but the 501's are for 9" rims and the II's are for 8" rims. I believe you can find them at servicehonda.com

Daren: Couldn't find anybody that sells them on the net? Anybody know where I could pickup a set?

 

ZRWHAT,
I couldnt find any on the net either whenever I tried to get mine, I had to drive to get them at a dealership, I believe that Honda is the biggest retailer of these tires, I looked it up and you can prolly get a set from these guys, dunno if that what you were looking for just tryin to give a lil help.

If you go to servicehonda.com and get the part #s and take them to your local Honda dealer, they should be able to get them. That is exactly what I did. I would have ordered them from Service Honda, but my Honda dealer said they could send the tires back if they were not the tread pattern that I wanted. The Pro Wedge 501's cost me about $52 each.

Good luck,

Thanks guys. I did find them on ServiceHonda finally. I will check with a local dealer. Thanks for your help!
