    Crate Tires To Use

    Just want to know which size tires to use on each side of car? Heard use 92's on every side except left rear. Heard to use 90's on the front,88's on left rear,and 92's on right rear? Can somebody give me some info on this thanks

    I (and most others I know) run 90's on the front an 88 on the left rear and a 92 on the right rear. I have heard of running 92's everywhere but the left rear but I was told that it raises the front end too much. No personal experience to pull from however. John 1*

        I use (2) 90s front (1) 88 LR (1) 92 RR

        On Fast High-banked tracks I have used 92s on the front to keep from dragging the nose

          We run 92s on the front to keep the nose up a little. Then 88/92 in the back of course.

            How much stagger is everybody running in the rear these days? And what length track?

              we run around 4-5 inches on a 3/8th fairly banked track. if it really starts to slicken off we will throw a 90 on the LR instead of the 88 to snug it up

                What I always do is just use the 90/92 as a reference point. The numbers that matter are the ones after you mount the tire then measure it. For the most part I run 90's on the front and 88/92's on the rear. But if I can get around an inch split in the front tires, then I will use either a 90 or a 92. Then in the rear to get 5 inches or more of stagger you will most likely have to use an 88 & 92, but any less you might can get by with a 90.

                    our class requires that we run wrs2 d55s on all 4 corners. we ran the 1600s before that when we first got the car and they seemed to have more side/forward drive than the wrs2 for more races but the WRS2s are really good when they're new and you can keep them soft.

                        new at the track i think we get them for $145. but we buy 99% of ours used from an a guy that runs a local Super Late Model class that has a spec tire rule. he runs them 1 or 2 races they we buy them from him at a pretty good price that i wont say because wow....its a good price.
