My Dad has a set of the 555r's but are shot and has the stock tires back on it. Any good street tires that are good for the strip as well for the stock rears? He refuses to buy them Drag tires again.

Hey, was told the 305's are to wide for the stock rim. When are the stock size MT going to be out? He is interested in what a rear set will run him.
