i sold my summit stars late last year and am picking up some prostars next week. What tires should i run on them? I dunno if i should go back to the QTPs or run something different. 15x8 wheels out back and on stock shock/springs.

if youre only going to race on test and tune go with a ET drag 26x10.5 stiff wall or 28x10.5 stiff wall.

i cut 1.65's with those qtp's and they were spinning deffinetly had more in em. But if you want to street them too then id say a mickey radial.

Going back to a hoosier myself. Radials just don't work as good for my setup. Even though I've gone 1.61 on them I've gone low 1.5s on the hoosiers.

These will be strictly track wheels right? Or you planning on some street use?

id stick with the drag radials and tune the suspension to make it work. radials are a faster tire.

Don't you want some wrinkle for a stick car? Unless you want a little more trap or don't like the loose feeling?
