P.S. That's a pretty damn wide rear tire. What's it, like a N50 x 15?

No, probably the old M&H street slicks. My partner and I had a pair on his old 67 Camaro (which we street raced). Those things were about 11-11.5 inches wide. All they were was a slick with tread grooves etched into them. I don't remember when NHRA opened the class to allow slicks. For a time, you had to run a "street" tire, these skirted that rule.
