Also the 185x55x17 are a radial Hooiser quick time pros are bias ply.
You won't wanna run a radial and bias ply.

I was trying to find the Hoosier tires he was running as well. Did some searching and some say they look a bit sturdier than the M&H's. The M&H's look low on air when they are filled up. The Hoosiers are only rated to 130 mph though which could pose a problem for me and others. I will probably go M&H for the fronts, and plan on ET Street Radials for the rear.

I'm running this setup right now. My Hoosiers don't have much left in them so I will be swapping over to the ET street radial which is why I bought the radial fronts.

My set arrived yesterday. Quick shipping from Beefcake! I too am wondering what kinda tires to buy for the front. Already have a set of new MT street radials for the rear.

Tires on the front are Hoosier pro street radials and the rear are hoosier QTPs. I'm swapping the rears to MT Street radials as soon as the hoosiers are done.

They've been really solid so far and they dead hooked a 700 rwtq hit of the nitrous from a 30 punch one night.
