Jody,

A lot of the faster guys like to run the 17 or 18" Hoosiers RA tires but they are a bit pricey. I like either the 15" Bias Ply Goodyear or Hoosier Slicks. A little more forgiving than some of the radials and also about $120.00 per tire as opposed to some of the lower profile Hoosier or Avon radials that may cost close to $300 per tire.

I have 4 full sets of slicks all on 15" tires and one set of street tires so if I didn't have so much invested in all my 15" tires and wheels I would switch to at least 17" tires for several reasons. The two main reasons would be BIGGER BRAKES and BETTER CHOICE OF TIRES in that order by the way.
