Finally I am deciding to get Convo Pro 15x4. What is the best tire to use. I heard the Morosso are good. In the rear I have 28" MT Drags, but up front I can only go the stock diameter because of my eibach launch kit. Should I stick with a MT or no? Please let me know what tire you use

Im using Moroso DS2s. I wouldnt recommend them for street driving. Im sure they would wear out very quickly.

I'm running the MT Drag fronts. They are VERY light. If you are looking for something more durable and DOT legal, I would go with the MT Sportsman fronts.

I believe Moroso DS2s are the lightest front tire out there. MT makes 2 different ones, Sportsman Pros and ET Streets. The DS2s are about 20 bucks a tire less than the MTs. Im very happy with my DS2s.

MT recommends the 8 ply for cars over 3500 lbs. They are a bit heavier than the others just so you know. They are about 100.00 a tire through Jegs or Summit.

I've got a brand new, never mounted set of the 8 ply Sportsmans for sale if anybody is interested. I bought them and then changed my mind before I mounted them.

Can any of those tires be driven on the streets?
I have the VW tires now. I just need a light tire I can drive to the track on. The track
is only 7 miles from home.

I drive with my Moroso DS2s on the street with no problems. I think they will wear out very quickly though on a daily driver.
