I think David Buschur had came up with a good combo so you wouldnt have to switch Brakes. I would PM him.

Seems like when i had the BFG drag radials i broke allot of axles with them not having the give in the sidewall and wheel hoping

If for strict drag use only i could think of nothing better than a full out slick like a MT ET Drag, BFG, Hoosier etc

If not a DOT rated type like a Hoosier QTP or MT ET Street bias ply tire.

It will all come down to wheel size.

The one thing i've really noticed is that these cars seem to really benefit from a very soft sidewall tire. More consistent and easier on parts.
