is buying the drifting tires a good idea?

[bonz88]

i have seen cars drifting and it seems tight i have a camaro with all stock except for the underglow i want to get a new body also

[PimpSkyline]

Well the body kit is the least of ur worries.

No Drift tires are not a Need. But not the worst idea to get. Their just Plastic wheels and tires. Plus U WILL have to get the 4WD upgrade to drift with the Drift Tires.

I would just get a 5 Cell to start, and find some "baby bottom smooth asphalt/concrete" and start drifting their. Then slowly work u way to my "pat pending" 8 Cell upgrade, an 4WD upgrade, then finally the Drift Tires. Thats the way went and I Can Drift!

^^ um i dont think you are the first to do a 8 cell... and BTW i think pimpmymod.com has like... a 7 cell, plus ove seen cars with more that 8 cells, ive even seen a 4 cell lithium AA on a gen 1

i put put drift tires on my G35 and it didnt go eny where it just spind its tires

[tre_11]

thats what mine did so i just boght differint tires

[acura6549]

get the other tires the one with 4 soft slicks and 4 hard tread
or wat ever

[RodsRUs]

I think their worth it if your goin to get into drifting..
but the hard tires in the tire kit work really well because they do have a littlle grip to them

[oddryu]

arent rice burners meant for drifting? im just saying though

[Shark17]

If you keep spining out with the drift tires, then don't floor it. I have AWD and drift tires on my Evo, and it has grip, as long as I don't floor it. There is a difference between them and the treaded ones. If you are serious about drifting, then get them.

did you have AWD cuz if you dont thats all you do is spin out

[PimpSkyline]

Yea don't floor it. lol unless u got real tires on it.

[Red10152]

i took my G35 out the next on the asphalt and it did just fine it also drifts very nicely on wood floors i tested it out on the floors in my house add-on

[NON_SKID]

no

[c1v1c]

ya shark17 is right
but did u tried taping wheels?

[ZackyV]

go with the drift tires from atomic.
the upgrade is just plastic rims with the sides painted black to look like tires
might as well use and old pair or rims and save yourself 10 bucks

i honestly don't recommend taping wheels. I tried it...not a huge difference in terms of drifting, and when i took it off, craploads of dust stuck on. Maybe my crappy taping, but i would still recommend some sort of tires with less traction, a slippery floor, or some upgraded parts. My lancer is stock and when i drifted with it it was fine...provided it was on a slippery floor. It did spin out some times...though.

[PimpSkyline]

well never the less if u Are going to do drifting, u need drift tires.
lol

[jesseeast1]

Well I bought all in one so I got drift engine,tires,awd, it drifts like a pro now! But its starting hit stuff lol but it still drifts and I would say get the stuff I got and you'll drift like anything.

[jaravez]

I'll be buying the kit, after reading all this info provided the best thing will be trial and error and find out which set will work for me. thanks for the different options

[xmoddslancer8]
