I am using the M&H Drag Radials 275/50/17's on a 9 inch rim but they would work fine on a 8 inch stock.

Heavy,
What are you running up front? Also, do those M&H hook pretty good?

They are by far the best hooking tire I have ever tried, period. Plus if you order through them, they give you a discount!

Up front I just run a pair of Kumho SPT 245/45/17.

They handle the turns just fine...I keep them inflated to about 26 to 27 PSI for the street.
