Have any of you guys used the Coker Tire Pro-Tracs 215-75-15 for front tires on your cars?.I am looking to get some new tall front rubber to get the oil pan off the pavement and these caught my eye.I also am considering the M/T Sportsman fronts and the Moroso 27"drag specials.They will be going on some 4"wide Torq-Thrust D's

Have a set on the Bee now. Mine are mounted on a set of 15X6 cragars so so that shortens the height some but on a 4 in rim it should look real nice.

Just make sure they are balanced properly as the first person who did mine did not know what he was doing. The 2nd balance (static) turned out fine. And they work well at the track.

Here are some pics

I am running Pro-Tracs 215-75-15 on the front, I wanted a tall tire up front for all the help I could get. I think they work fine
