Default Re: Question about Slicks....

There's nothing wrong with the Hurst re-caps and they're a great choice for budget-minded people. I'd hate to be admiring a great looking Day-2 street/strip or race car that has "UNIROYAL LAREDO" on the inside sidewall of the slicks when I look under the rear of it. That's the basic casing that Hurst uses on many of it's slicks. That, and I really don't want to risk the paint on a beautiful set of quarter panels, or even the quarter panels themselves of having a cap come off a tire and come whipping around over and over while still partially attached. I'm sure we all see tire caps on the highway all summer long from the big rigs.
