Guys,
Sorry for what you all would probably consider basic questions, but I'm moving out of my comfort zone turning a drag car into a pro-street cruiser and need your advice. I've acquired a car that currently has 9.5" rear wheels (Drag Lites) with M/T slicks that measure about 27.5" in diameter by 9.5" wide. I would like to convert over to a street-legal tire but wanted your recommendations.

1.) Is there a particular street tire that you would recommend that has similar height/width/sidewall characteristics?

2.) I noticed that the slicks are screwed through the rims. Can you still run street tires on these rims since there are now holes from the screws, or am I looking at purchasing rims as well? If tubes are an option for street tires, I guess that is a question as well.
