    I was thinking though.....


    I run a 255 50 16 tire which has a tire height of 26.04 inches.

    If I get the 265 60 16 then my tire height will be 28.52?!?!?!?!


    Damn!

        mickey thompson tires are ok. i am not a big fan.
        i woudl suggest you look at the hoosier quick time pro. with a 26x 9.5 on a 15 inch rim your heap will hook like a monster.
        YOU DO NOT NEED BIG TIRES TO HOOK!!!!!!
        a small tire is better for rolling resistance and for total weight. if you take care of the front suspension a small rear tire wil do all teh work.
        the hoosiers are also street legal so you don't have to worry about any little piggies bothering you for them.

            Hoosier makes really good hooking slicks and im assuming the DOT tires are the same compound of rubber...
