I just picked up a set of 28x10x15 Hoosier slicks yesterday, I will be trying them this weekend for the 1st time... I had good luck with Hoosier's QTP 27x10.5x15 and the slicks are a full 1" wider and taller...

LOVE my 28x11.5 QTP's
1.4s in the 6speed with a stock torque arm, and back into the 1.4's footbraking a TH350 w/ 3.50 rear. They hook HARD on the street too. Lasted me a full season of freeway driving and a large number of track passes/burnouts. Seriously have about 600-700 miles of street use on them and they aren't showing any kinds of slowing me down.

I prefer Hoosiers over M/T slicks. The stiffer sidewall on the Hoosiers sure do feel more stable on the top end of the track. I had 28x10.5s on my old Formula, it would cut 1.4s no problem with 3650 lbs. I had 28x10 on my '69 and they worked well too.
Right now my silver Formula is sitting on 28x10s with my old Pro Stars from the '69, there is plenty of clearance room with those tires on it.

I just put on the 28x10x15 Hoosier slicks on Saturday night and hit the track on Sunday... it was a tight fit but there was no rubbing at 135MPH... We did some trimming to the rear bumber and the BFH mod ![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)
Not much different that the QTP, but I think the slicks will work better at a track with less prep...
