Can someone advise me about what to buy for street/strip drag racing tires for my 1965 Skylark GS? It has 14X6 front ralley wheels and 15X8 rear ralleys. Have red line Goodrich radials for street but they aren't good for off the line. The car is running it's original 401 with 2-fours and 4 speed, 3:90 Posi and turns low 14s in 1/4 mile. Looking for 13 seconds/100 mph. John Roberts roostergs@gmail.com

How about Goodrich race radials. There are some sizes etc. on this page. I am probably going to get a set, and am interested in what is said here.
