I'm looking at Hoosiers

[Reptile]

What size QTP's are you guys running on stock torque stars? I don't know beans about tires, so I need all the help I can get at this point.

[TDCRacing]

I think you are limited to these


Hoosier 17431 - Hoosier Quick Time Pro D.O.T. Tires - summitracing.com




All hoosier offers in a real slick is a 28 x 10-16

hoosiers suck, mickey thompsons are the best tire out right now
255/50/16. i will be running them on my car

[Iron Indian]

I donno, i've heard many GP guys (on ClubGP) swear by the Hoosiers and cuss out the MTs.

Shaferz was running these at Branson...





Opps! Just noticed there 15"! Could of sworn they were 16"

I plan on doing the same thing Brian, running QTPs on stock torque stars. LMK, when you get setup. I curious where I can pick up a set the cheapest. I still don't know whats the best size for me to get.

[QwikGT]

the 10.5 class are running 7's and 6.50's on the mickey thompsons...its a proven tire on a 7 second car

[Iron Indian]

But RWD and FWD cars are totally different animals altogether. A tire that sticks good on a RWD doesn't mean it'll work good on a FWD car period. Trust me, i've experimented with this theory myself.

[QwikGT]

well im gunna buy the stickey mickeys and well see what happens

[TDCRacing]

Let us know how it turns out for sure.

Well, I wouldn't have anything against the MT's either...I just remember way back that everyone had a hardon for the QTP's.

Basically what I'm looking for, is a slick that has a compound that doesn't take much to heat up. Nitto's just take too much time, and half the time I drag myself out of the water box before they've had time to cook.

Hoosiers are quite good. Fastkatt had used a set when I owned them... he went from a 13.9? to a constant 13.20 just from the slick. just by doing a quick little burn.

I have Mickey's on my GTP...just because I have had good luck with them on my camaro, as well as S10.

[TDCRacing]

What year was those 15'' rims from? I have found running a 15'' rim gives you way more tire size options.

[UR LOSN]

you can get 15" steelies from a Grand Am.... they still work.

If you have fbody brakes they won't work though.

[Reptile]

Yup, F bodies here, so I have to stick to the 16's
