After some time, I give up. Can you let me know what's proven hoosier/racing slicks and what wheels everyone is using and size?

Thanks a lot.

If you are talking 1/4 mile, I have a set of 18" Racestar wheels and a set of 18" Bogarts. I run ET Streets on the Racestar and Hoozier on the Bogarts.

Another vote for 18s w/Mickey Thompson ET Street Rs. Great tire and setup, they're holding 950+ torque and cutting low 1.3s 60' consistently.

Size of the tires? I'd imagine you'd run it thicker so have to minus 2 wheels sizes, like 18"

I've got Forgestar 18X12's with bead locks and Hoosier's. 335-30-18 IIRC. I also have another pair of Forgestar 18X12 non-bead locks with Nitto's on it for DD.
