The radials in the link below are the ones I am talking about...I think street driving on the cheapy tires is more dangerous then racing them, thats just my opinion though

My post above has a direct link to the 26" radial front runners that are on my Charger. The work just fine and are ok in a light rain if you are respectful and have the brake proportion set up correctly.

Didn't even notice that sorry lol...Yea apparently they are a pretty good tire. I would rather run those then the cheapies, a little more peace of mind I feel like

Check out the Vredestein Sprint from Coker. They have a 165/15, basically an old sports car/VW tire with a vintage appearance. Kind of looks a Sportsman front but it's a radial. I think they have a decent speed rating. About $115 each, not a bad price. A cheaper alternative to a Michelin XZX. http://www.cokertire.com/165hr15-vredestein-sprint-blackwall-tire.html

Thanks 1967DartGT, I have been having a problem Red lighting and thought going to a taller tire might help.
