Default Question about gearing and tire size.

When im at the track I run 275 40 17 front and ill be runnin et radials which are 255 50 16 for the rears. Is that going to mess up gearing at all? The over all diameter is 26.1 for the rears and my front tires are 25.7.
I have 3.23 gears and I normally run 275 40 17 for rears on the street.

It'll be fine.

How about some 275/40/17 drag radials? Then you won't have to swap for the track. Just run 'em all the time. Of course then you'll be needing a higher stalling converter to take advantage of them.
