Need Reccomendations I'm ordering a set of Weld Pro Star, 15 x 10 x 4 3/4" BP, 7.5" BS
I was going to run a 28 x 11.5 MT ET Street tire on it, but what would you reccomend? Will I be able to get good 60's with a 26" tire? My best MPH has been 120 with a 2.3 60'. I'm also upping to a 150 wet shot, so if that makes any difference. Thanks.

Re: Need Reccomendations Whether or not the ET Streets will work for you will greatly depend on how well the starting line is prepped at your track. Having a 28" tire will net more sidewall and will help with traction, but you're going to be hitting the tires pretty hard off of the line w/ a 150 shot. How well does your track typically hook? If it's pretty crappy, then a set of ET Drags or Hoosiers wouldn't hurt. I think Hoosier even makes a 27" slick that might work pretty well for you.

Re: Need Reccomendations Thanks. My 60's are really crappy. I have never been able to net less than a 2.0, and with a 12.2 @ 119MPH I had a 2.1 60'. I would like to go with MT Drag's or Hoisers, but the reason I was thinking about ET Streets is cause I will prolly have to drive on the street sometimes, like when I meet with friends on the weekend, or the frienldy street race <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> That's the main reason for the ET Streets. Thanks.

Re: Need Reccomendations Will a 13" wide tire, ie the M/T 28"x13" allow for better traction. or am i getting in way over my head, and should just stick with the 28"x11.5" Thanks.
