The ones in the picture are these
http://www.jegs.com/p/M-H/M-H-Cheate...54718/10002/-1

They are 26x11.5x16


These are the M&H 305/40/16

The tires that are used in the pictures from the post you quoted are drag race tires and in the rain will suck, I know from personal experience. If you want to buy them and try the give it a shot but it is guaranteed that you will lose the back end on a very nice rainy day.

I remember that one night it rained at bobs, you telling us about it. The reason why I like them is because they wont tick off the abs or the speedometer. Ill see if I pull the trigger on them. Thank you Adam.

Yup you got it, just remember though this will be something cops will look at and question why you are driving on slicks. with a 26in tall tire you should be safe.

That was scary though, cause it happen to me as well. and I was running on a somewhat bald tire myself. it was alot of rain. Ill take it easy though. Where I live not much cops care for that... only when I drive to a different city where the laws are a bit more strict. Thank you.
