1600's,wrs or american racer

[hobbyracerbn2]

what would out of those options would be best to run on rear have to be a 55 compound..its a steel head late model with open tire rule on the front only thanx

the 1600 and the american racer 56 both have open tire style sidewalls, they are a wider tire, and they typically are not full synthetic. the wrs 55 is synthetic so it doesn't hold up to as many heat cycles but they are usually cheaper.

you can win on any of them. but if it was me I would run the 56 or the 1600 unless i had alot of wrs tires already.

Depends on who you talk to around these parts. Some swear by Racers and others by Hoosiers. Racers, especially if you can find some crate racin' 56's are very soft out of the box. I think AR's are a better tire.

Asking the best way to groove is like asking Chevy, Ford or Dodge
