Rears are bias slicks. I wanted to run the Rs but I was concerned about breakage from the stiffer sidewall of the radial compared to the Hoosier slick soft sidewall. Not as hard on the drivetrain and they really hook as good as the Rs. Since I trailer to the track it was the best choice for the RWHP we make. I ran MT bias on my 16 ss with the street R 17 radial on the rear. Good combo.

I probably have 400 passes with a M&H bias skinny and a Mickey radial rear between my SS and C8. I tried the M&H skinny radial when they first came out and hated them. You would be surprised how street friendly the drag pack is too....I've done multiple "true street" events which require a 30 mile drive to the track before racing begins.

120 bolt pattern.

I run the Mickey Thompson ET Street Fronts in a 17" upfront (27" tall). They are a companion skinny tire to the ET Street R's and are a reasonably light tire at 16 lbs each.
