Not a Camaro but a minitubbed 3rd gen Nova, very similiar. Sees some drag strip action a couple times a year.

Have 17x11's on the back and had 315/35/17 Nitto 555R's. Good street tire and worked good at autox even with the drag radial sidewall. 650rwhp at the track was hit or miss though. Sometimes it would spin.

This year, more power so using a pair of 335/35/17 Hoosier drag radials (the kind with two straight lines down the middle) and they are supposed to hook better than any other 17. Hope they carry me into the 9's.

As far as a dedicated drag setup, Ive also had 15x10's with 27x11.5x15 Hoosiers on it and also a set of 325/50/15 Mickey drag radials with no problems. The 325's are tight but look killer.
