i'm guessin you have a stock 10bolt? with a 9" or 12bolt you would be capable of launching with a bigger bump but it should be fine. just make sure your suspension is tuned in and you'll be fine.

I'm assuming because of the shorter sidewall. Understandable.

I'm wondering the same thing, I'm looking to dead hook on my 17" Mickeys. Moser 9" here...
