Fastest on True Radial

anybody know of the fastest 4th gen on a true radial?

Getting into a local class, this is the only rule

TIRES: Front tires must be DOT Approved and have a minimum tread width of 4.5 inches. Rear tires must be a true "off the shelf" radial tire with a minimum tread rating of "180". Tire size is based off a P255/60 R15. 16-18in "off the shelf" radials permitted but cannot exceed the following dimensions: 10.25" section width, 8.2" tread width, 27.0" overall diameter. The tread of these tires must not protrude outside the body line at the top of the tire. If your car came from the factory with a tread rating lower than 180, bring factory info on the tires with proof tires came with vehicle.

NO DRAG RADIALS, ROAD RACE, RE-CAPS, SNOW TIRES PERMITTED, ALSO, no adding in any manner of chemicals (Track-Bite, etc...) or "Soaking" to soften the tire rubber is allowed and will result in an immediate disqualification...


Wondering what to run, ive read up on people running 10s on "Pep Boy Specials" but we do not have a Pep Boys around here

That's probably because they were running the "Pep Boy Specials" up front as a skinny.

I have never heard of anyone running that fast on that kind of tire before. Unless of course, you're AWD and make some obscene amount of power.
