Go to mickeythompson.com u can compare tires there it breaks down the sizes so u can compare! U want a anti-rollbar on a drag car, a sway bar is for handling!
another rim/tire question
- Thread starter rednotch88
- Start date
So we are set that a 275/60/15 are the fattest drag radial staying on the safe side without rubbing? For the record...Also any suggestion on a good anti-roll bar?
Thank you 306notch big help you have been.Thats what I figured about the aint/sway bars. If I have other questions on this build look out for my PM's.
Looks like a guy needs the same help you been giving me on drag radial size *check out recent threads*
If anyone still would like to keep ths thread "active" to post more of there cars it would be a big help and greatly appreciated.

No problem, im not sure what is the best anti roll bar! If it was me yes the 275/60, u can go with a shorter 275/50 thats only 26" tall but is a little wider than the 275/60, but the 275/60 has a taller sidewall-more sidewall= more traction=getting out of the whole quicker! People have ran in the 7's with this tire size!

You say it fits like a glove huh?
can i go bigger?
if there is anything a little wider?I like the wide/tall profile on the rears tying to go as big as possible with no launch issues.You said you had a 28" slick on there what was the width 11"? correct?
just trying to get all questions out of way now..
thanks
oh you also said if i want wider look go 9" how would that make it look wider changing the rim width?

one more thing you said I can run a 9" rear rim with 5.5 BS? if so can I run that rim with a 28x11.50 if they are so much alike the 275/60?

Im not really sure i had the hoosier in that size and it rubbed, but not all brands like MT or Hoosier have sizes that are exactly the same, they very from manufacturer to manufacturer. A 11.5" slick from MT might not be the exact same as the Hoosier 11.5"!
