Search isn't working as well as i would like on this subject so i will just ask. My setup will be 15x10 rears and 17x4 1/2's on the front. I have always ran M/T ET streets but now considering QTP's or similar. I am simply looking for experience and or opinions with said tires or another and where to order from. Also what size should i be considering with 3.31's? Thanks for the info in advance guys. :beer:

I run the 28x10.5R15 M&H Drag Slicks and the M&H radial front runners 17's in the front.

Everyone says the M&H slicks are too soft and I have not had any problems with them at all, barely any sway on the big end with 12-13psi in them and cutting a 1.60FT and im a horrible driver.

I run the MT ET street radial on my WS6 and its been a 1.23 60'. It only comes in a 275/60/15 and that's a tall tire for 3.31 geared NA setup. http://www.mickeythompsontires.com/strip.php?item=ETStreetRadialPro
I ran the Hoosiers for 2 years with good luck also, didnt get as many passes though.
I just cut a 1.46 60' on 305/35/19 MT drag radials in my 2012 5.0.
I know those work good also.
