what front runners are you running?

If you are going to street drive it, I would suggest the cheap VW tire to save a few bucks. If it is street and strip then go with a Micky radial as said above. Ideally the best setup would be to have 2 sets of tires up front. A set with the VW tire for street duty, and a set with a Moroso DS-2 (or similar bias ply) for the track. If the budget allows. A 15x3.5 Weld draglite with a 26" bias ply Moroso tire is almost the same weight as a 165/85r/15 VW tire by itself. That's an extra 18-20lbs off of the nose. If you run a Moroso bias ply on the street, it will be gone in about 500-750 miles.
