Tires for my new 5.0, slicks or drag radials??

[badass88gt]

bought some race stars for my new 13 5.0. was gonna order some rear tires today. I can't decide if i want full slicks or a mickey thompson drag radial. If radial do i get 295/55/15 or 275/60/15, or slick im thinking a 26/10.5/15, or possilbe a 26/12/15 old school m/t et street.


Want to make sure it bites hard at the track, i will be leaving off the bottle. Anyone have any ideas on what i should order...

thanks
adam

will those tires hit the street with regularity?

I had the new NT05 DR on my '11 and it did quite well, cut a couple 1.84 60's on motor and with 28PSI in them.

Im picking up a set of 265/40/18 MT's on stock rims. People are running 1.5's with em. I also have full bolt ons, lca's relocation brackets ect, and 3.73's.

Cut regular 1.7x's and a few high 1.6x's with my MT ET Street II's (295/45-17s). Didn't do much street driving with them, but what little I did, they seemed to do pretty good.

I have put about 800+ street miles on those tires. Still going strong! Hey I got a wet kit for your car you need!!!!!!! Make you a good deal on it!!

What gear and the type of power you expect to make is really critical in the size and type of tire you choose.
