Chain links and Drag Tire
How many links do you need for 6 inches stretched, and would you recommend a o-ring or non-oring chain?? Is the shinko ultra soft really the best drag tire since it is a little on the heavy side???

does the u soft say it on the side of the tire. I think i bought the other one. mine looks the part but will not stick at all. It just says oo3. I ve lowered the psi to 15 and it still spins. Perhaps its not the one i thought i was buying.

Is there any reason I would need a chain over 140 links if I used 2-8 swingarm extensions

With gearing @ 64inch wheel base the chain is around 136 pins/links...I guess if you need to be more than 64"

sidewall will state "R-003RR " and " u-soft 003"
