How wide are the fronts? What tires are you using/recommend for the front?

Obviously, Hoosier has the market for the rear with the only true 17x10 slick out at the moment

The front wheels are 17" X 5". I plan on running the M&H front radial tires.

Yes, I am going this afternoon. I just wish the track would run at night so the weather would be better.

The stock lug nuts are to big. I had to buy some regular acorn style lug nuts.
