I am currently running 275/40/17 nittos. I would like to find a drag radial in a 275/50/17 who makes that size? I want to go with a taller tire to knock a few rpm's off at the top of the 1/4. thanks John

M/Ts if I'm not mistaken.

nobodyy makes a 275/50/17 DR but MT does make a 295/45/17 DR which is 28" tall.

with 4.10's you do need a 28" tall tire.

whats your trap speed, and in what gear, and RPM?

I have not run it since the vortech install, but last time I did run it spraying it I like 6000 going through the traps. I woud like to shave a few rpms off. my car is an auto by the way

no...
no bigger then a 275 will fit safely on a GT rim.

KingChronic · February 5th, 2008, 02:11 PM

actually with the bigger sidewall it may fit ok.

jsut curious though, why not just buy a set of prostars for the rear soem 15X8's with 6.5" backspacing, and then a set of 28X11.5" slicks. that would be your best bet.

MT DR's wear VERY quickly.

yes, they will fit great.

4.10s would raise your rpms going thru the finish, unless it gets you to the next gear that much quicker
