Well the 275/60/15 M.T. E.T. Radial or the 28/11.5/15 M.T. E.T. Street will not work on the street and is the biggest fattest tire i can fit. Soo what size slick should i look for ?? My rims are 9 inches wide.
 
i have the 28x10.5 et drag on mine. drag radials are a waste for street racing. your car looked good last night, sounds bad ass

Larry my suspension is all good. I can hook at the track but not on the street. I`m starting to wounder about my pinion angle ? I think i`m at -1 and i think i read that i should be more then that ? I`m on my way to do some reserch but any help would be great. Remember i have this crazy LS motor in this little 2,700 pound notchback. John thank you for the offer.

pinion angle around -3 ...do you have adjustable uppers ?? what type of shock?? drag radials flat out work but you do have to tune the suspension...they like a soft compression and tight rebound ...I seen your car last night at the track looks good ...dont street race anymore ..never tried hookin my DR's on the street
