Choosing Front Drag setup TIRES?
I had to have much larger Hubcentric spacers custom made to fit my perfect CLK320 REAR setup on Hoosiers, What type of lightweight tire is BEST to run on the front wheels? I already have very lightweight wheel for front but realize NOT SAFE to run same Slick type Drag tires I have in the rear..

I appreciate any/all help, I'll be heading ALL the way up to Sacramento to run on exact same track Apples to Apples like the rest of So/Nor-Cal crews
