what size/brand tire for a 15x4 wheel?

[wwmost]

what kind of tires and what size are you guys running with ur drag wheels? i got the summit 15x4 wheels for my trans am and need to find what size tires i need. i wanted to run the 4 inch wheel upfront because this will do alot of street driving. so what tire would do good with some street driving but still be safe at high speeds at the track?

i have 275 mt drag radials for the rear.

I ran a 165-15 on my pro-stars but they were 3.5" wide but 165's should fit a 4" wide rim too.

165s drop the front to a 24.5" to a 25" tire.

Do a Mickey Thompson Sportsman 26'' x 7.5'' - 15''LT 8-Ply Rating for a bit over $100 each.

what brand and where did u order them from?

they were a generic brand, I dont remmember the name I bought them at Discount Tire, they said these tires a little hard to find anymore but they were able to get them for me, I paid eighty something dollars for each.

if not i will just dump the cash in the mickeys.........

^^^those would fit but the only bad thing about them is the T speed rating and they're on backorder, if your gonna be going 100mph+ at the end of the track I say get the mickeys instead.

yea thats what i was thinking about the rating... wouldnt want a tire blow out. i think i will stick with the mickeys

Yeah man, M/T's ftw! I want a drag setup to ride around daily on, I love the look of 15"s, good luck!
