Another question, Do you think I should run tubes? I was thinking of put them in so the tires don't go flat. Also think it would help stiffen up the side wall.
I replaced my tires this year to Hoosiers from M/Ts. My car is heavy 3340 empty. I went to tubes this year for two reasons. One I was tired of constantly adding air to them and two I was hoping for better traction with the tubes. As for the added weight my 0-60 got better as did my trap speed. Worked for me.
