If the tire is going to see street use as well the track

That tire is not designed to be used on the street. 2 ply construction which makes it very vulnerable to potholes. They are not DOT approved and you will get hassled if you ever get pulled over. However a good pick with your current rear tires (MT ET Streets non-radial) for track only duties. Do you actually have MT ET Street Radial tires? If so you may want to go with radial construction front tire as well.

so i just was outside and i looked at my front tires..they ar a 185/65-15 Bridgestone Turanza street tire..they have a T speed rating(118mph),which is ok for me..but liek i said,i personally thing they are a tad too wide for the 3.5" wheel
these exact ones
Bridgestone Turanza EL400
