Front Tires
 

What brand to buy that dont go flat ?

Re: Front Tires
 

Try the old moroso's. The drag specials I think. They last longer than anything I've tried plus I've never had a flat with one.

Re: Front Tires
 

I'll second this. Look at my photos, the old Moroso's on our Nova in that picture are 22 years old and still hold air. NO, when the car is finished I'm not going to run them , LOL!!! When I purchase new tires, I'll probably buy Moroso's again.

I haven't had a problem with my 28" Hoosiers after a few months in the off season. Over the years some may have lost a few pounds but there is the valve stem to consider too.

Whatever brand you buy make sure you coat the inside of the tire with Dawn dish soap. It keeps your tires from leaking down.

Have been using the Moroso Drag Specials for 20+ yrs (even some light street use). They were never a problem, but I am going to try the Hoosiers this year. I will let everyone know if I made a bad decision......
I like living on the edge.......LOL

Never had ANY problems with the Moroso Drag Specials.

I have a set of 2yr old Moroso DS2's and one of them has a porous sidewall. Will the dishwashing liquid cure that?

Re: Front Tires
 

Dave, Yes it should cure it!

the M/T I put on last spring still have the same air. it sat from Sept to March had to put like 2lbs in them when I got to the track.

I have had three rock punctures with my hoosiers in the last two season's, They seem to be pretty thin.

Re: Front Tires
 

i have some new m/t's and they have been holding 35psi all winter.

Re: Front Tires
 

Never had any issues with front tires. Maybe I am lucky. I had old Moroso's on Weld prostars for years, Then DS-2s on Monocoques for several years. I went to the new Mickey Thompsons a couple of years ago and they also have been good. This also was on Monocoques and now with new Mickey Thompson rims. I always use new metal valve stems. No problems so far with any of these.

Re: Front Tires
 

I'm using nitrogen in the moroso drag specials. It is less prone to losing air pressure because of the larger molecular structure of nitrogen. The pressures are more consistant.

Re: Front Tires
 

TOYO claims they have the truest "in round" tire available. Also, I believe, the most expensive.

Re: Front Tires
 

had Hoosier's and they went flat monthly, put on MT's and no more problems, sat all winter.

Thanks guys now have Moroso ds-2s filled with nitrogen Blasttime
