I was wondering what was too small for front tires for drag racing. My Nova will see frequent strip action so I wanted to get another set of rims and put a set of PepBoys Futura 165R15 with a 4-5.5in wide wheel and 275/50/15 Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial Drag Tires with 8.5in wheels. Both tires are about 26in tall. I'm looking at the Centerline Auto Drags or Weld Racing Pro Stars but any wheel suggestions would be cool also. Are these front tires any good for drag use or would they just blow up??? What tires do you guys use for front runners that'll get you to and from the track???

I ran some 15X3.5" Centerlines with 165/15 Michelins in the early 80's. Looked great but cornering was an issue!

We'll just leave this one in the tires/wheels section. Please try to post questions in one forum, make the search feature work a lot better and keeps things un-cluttered.
