Anyone know where to find flat track tires for my son's 03 DRR50? I would love to find some to fit his 8" douglass alum rims but if not i will need wheels too? Thanks for any help.

American Racers.
15x6x8s is the size on mine.
They are on a wider than stock wheel.
I run the 16x6.5x8 knobbys on the front.

Sorry dad, I've had these for years and dont know anywhere to get them. Maybe nacs or maybe you know someone that races a stock car. They should know.
Can't post a pic either

FYI: Mine were flat. I had to groove them.

No problem. Thanks for the help. It looks like Hetrick sells them but they want $70 each or $95 each if they groove them. I may look into some Carlisle Turf tires instead for now and maybe upgrade down the road.

What do you think of these tires? Can you recommend which to use for the rear and which to use for the front?

These all would fit on my existing rims. Do they look alright or not? Thanks for all of your help!!!!

We use tire #2 on our LEM Condor 50, LT80, & blaster!! They work just fine, we grooved one set for the blaster we have them in 18" 20" & the LEM ones were tiny!!

They work good for t he tracks we race on, which are clay & indoor arena's so horse/cow doo & dirt LOL

I was looking at the 16" but do you think the 18" would be better for our DRR50? We are running clay & dirt as well. Do you run them on all four wheels or do you run something different on the front?

I wouldn't run the 18's tey are a little much for a 50, I'd run the smaller ones!! We just run a snog hog on the fronts is it a MUST for the mini's to run class C tires??? If not tehn I'd just run a snow hog or turf tamer

We ran front Hoosiers on our blaster

Have fun!!

Just as Jack (LT80) mentioned. N700's up front, American Racers from Hetrick Racing on the rear.
