I am about to purchase my first set of front runner tires and I am looking for suggestions. I have MT 325/50R15 ET Street radials in the rear and 15" x 4" weld Prostar wheels for the front, so I am looking for 15" radials in the front. Anyone have experience with the tires from dragracetires.com? They evidently are owned by the Coker tire company.

Any suggestions appreciated.

I went to the tire store and look you VW type tires. They were radial 26" tall and about 5" wide. They worked fine on the street with 325.
M/Y makes a 26x7.50x15 which will be perfect.
The M/T wit the "s" type tread can flat spot some if left in one place too long ask me how I know lol. The other model they have will be fine though they both drive well. Also make a 9 ply for heavier cars which I chose for more stability
If you street drive it imo just get a good reg tire like a continental and call it a day.

Just make sure if your going to drive to the track that they are DOT approved.
