you guys looking for drag tires, I would suggest running a 26" tall tire.
The taller the tire the lower your gear ratio goes. I run Mickey Thompson
26x10.5x 15 with no traction problems and run 12.5's @ 110mph
just a little suggestion, cause you could actually slow yourself down by
going too tall

89 Shelby Dakota #322 - 360 C.I. V8 (12.56 @ 110 mph) "FASTDAK"
94 Dakota Sport - 3.9 V6 5-Speed (15.86 @ 84 mph)
