>side wall for a 15???? Jason, if it's BFG Drag Radials your thinking about, they make one 16" size and only one. The sidewall is 26.1". The tallest sidewall 15" is 28". It has a HUGE sidewall area for a great hook-up. Also, I'm not sure you'll find any 6 bolt wheels other than 15" or the 17's you have now unless they are aftermarket. Go for the 15's and go to a junkyard and get 2 15" 6 bolt Dak rims. Also, and dml correct me if I'm wrong, but if you run a shorter dia. tire you increase the ratio. If I have 3.92 with the stock 27" R SA's, won't I have something in the 4.10 range with my 25.7" sidewall on my 17" Drag Radials? If this is so, the 28" sidewall would give a 3.50 or so ratio which should be about perfect for the Magnum.
