lil help with drag tires

[bigadam79]

Im trying to decide on what slicks to order for my car. Ive been reading up on the Hoosiers quick time pro D.O.T. Size 27"x10.50"x15. Is this the correct size for our cars?

I was wondering how good these are. I know a few guys running Hoosiers with good luck.


Also been checking out the M/T ET Streets size 275/60-15. What do yall think? Ive never run slicks before but want something thats streetable. Im kinda leaning towards the Hoosiers.

The MT ET Streets and the Hoosier QTP are the equivalent of either brand. the 275/60/15 is a 28" tire. Myself I just run street tires on the street because the street slicks and drag radials wear out too fast for me to run all the time. Street tires have lasted me a couple years and still have lots of life left. I do have a pair of full slicks 28x9 MT ET Drags. They are about the same size as my street tires 275/60's. Hope this helps some

Well im hoping that eventually, Ill have a set of wheels/tires for the track, and then a set for the streets. I dont drive the car on the street too much though, mostly on the weekends like Saterday nights. I was wondering how much wear that would put on a set of DOT slicks.

I think you will be ok as long as you don't do too many burnouts

You would probably be happiest with the M/T DR's for your BU. Those things just flat out work

I run the 27" x 10.5" ET Streets which are the same as the Hoosiers you have pictured. They work great with a 15"x8" wheel and 3.75" to 4" B.S. on stock wheel wells and have supported 11 second passes as well as street duty.
