Default Drag radials

I have a 2006 v. Was just wondering what is the best drag radials I can run on stock rim. Biggest size without having any issues. And if anybody has any recommendations on good drag radials. Extremely appreciated

When I had my V1 I ran the Mickey Thompson in 275/40/18. And I was lowered but had the fenders rolled because it would rub when I would hit it in 2nd gear. Hope your rear survives, I never took it to the track with the Mickeys. I had a 07 maggied.

I'm running 295's. They bulge. But work fine. I just use them at the strip. Nothing street. Installed and removed at the track.

I'd be very reluctant to put drag radials on with a stock differential. But if you've got a Ford or V2 swap back there, drag on.
