800rwhp stock susp. C5 Z06: MT ET Street or MT ET Street radial
I'm going to be getting a 17/16" CCW drag pack for the Corvette. 17" M&H bias-ply front runner and I am at a toss-up for which rear to choose.
The car is going to see a smaller blower pulley, new 3bar tune and power levles in the 8-850rwhp range depending on how we tune it. I do not and will not want to change any of the suspension. This car is my toy car...I take it on 3500 km road trips, take it out for dinner etc. I do not want to convert it into a track only car, rather I want track only wheels and tires to go have some fun on the weeekends and still drive it to and from the track with the CCWs on it.
I will be racing at at track that holds weekly street legal events. They do not put any prep down for the events. Any prep that is down is just accumulated over the course of the season from the 'real' drag events.
I'm not overly concerned with ride quality, but the tire needs to take speeds of 150+ mph.
16" ET street or ET street radial??
