I am just wondering if anyone here knows if Mickey Thompson Tires (http://4wheelonline.com/Mickey_Thompson_Tires.1724)' Sportsman Pro Tires is an ideal drag racing tires for vintage cars like 1965 Ford Falcon Sedan?

What size wheels do 1965 Falcons have? My 1963 has 13-inch wheels. 13-inch tires probably would not work too well for drag racing. :)

The brand of tires that I hear most people liking are the MT's. While in Tucson I raced my 64 just to see what it would do on street tires. I asked quite a few guys about slicks.
Again, most including my brother run the MT's but there were those who loved the Hoosiers. A couple of guys recommended street radials. I am looking for some MT's to buy this year and run my car again with the slicks. Not sure this helped. Larry
