Both MT or Hoosier will work fine - IMO your car is not set up for drag racing so you won't be able to tell the difference in them. If your going to get a bias ply rear tire or a slick like you currently have - you have to get some skinny front wheels and tires or the car is going to drive like does now. You have 2 options for front tires. A 165/80R15 on a 3.5" or 4" wheel is the only radial that won't drive the car like it's on ice with bias ply rear tires on it. Back in the day everybody ran this set up because it was cheap, but FYI they are kinda hard to find these days. Your other front option is the bias ply Moroso, GY, Hoosier, M&H or MT front runners. Some are DOT approved but these are racing tires and won't last long driven around on the street. They do usually dry rot on a race car before you weear them out a 1/4 mile at a time. Will |
