The popular tires in Top Sportsman are the Goodyear 1490's and the 1022's. The Hoosier C06 is also popular and that is what I use. You dont "need" beadlocks unless you are over 200mph. Non beadlock is fine for 7sec cars. Think back all the years Pro Stock ran 7's on reg rims without an issue. Tire growth at high mph was the reason for the beadlocks at 200+
