Best tire for burnout?

I like to think I know a good deal about tires, ive been working with them for years and years now, but honestly, I have no clue what tires make good burnout tires. Im going to a show in a few weeks, that has a burnout competition for charity, and im wanting to enter. What tires will make a good amount of smoke? lol.

If you roast any tire long enough it's going to make a nice cloud of smoke. Just stand on it and keep them spinning. You'll blanket the place in smoke and have everybody gagging.

You guys are being a little general. Im looking more towards the technical side of it, and which tire would do the best.

Not just 'give it some gas, they'll burn'.

I've always wondered this as well. From what I've personally seen I've noticed the really cheap tires doing some really good smoke shows but unfortunitly I don't know what causes it.

Phate I know what you're talking about though. Sometimes you'll see a car just spin them for a good while with little to no smoke until it really starts. Then you'll see cars that just barely get them moving and they are creating tons of smoke.

there is a sand or silica compound that makes high performance tires grip the ground, I think Hard Compound tires are easier to burn since traction is tougher to get, my ranger never get traction with my 100,000 mileage tires...ahaha it did a nice burn out pretty quick.

phate,

check out either, Fuzion ZRI's or Mohawk Predator VRS. the mohawks will be hard to find, basically only through several small stores throughout the country but you can get them online. i had the mohawks on the back of my T/A before i got my nittos and i would blip the throttle and smoke would pour out.hehe.

You can move this thread to the Tire section Paar, apparently I need to be a global mod to do that

Like said above, one thing I know will make an assload of smoke is a bit of oil on the tires. Unless that would disqualify you or something I'd just get some cheap *** junk tires, maybe even from a junk yard, then dump a bunch of oil on em.
