Default widest tire for a drag radial

well i love to look of drag radials and would love to put a set of 15 or 16 inch on my car but i really dont want skinnies up front. is their anyway i can runa decent size tire up front with a drag radial like a weld or prostar any kind of drag wheel for that matter.the back will be fitted with a nitto 555 drag radial but just curious is i have to have them small tires up front .cuz i dd my car i just want that look of the drag wheels

you can get 15x7 fronts in weld's.. put a 215-225 on there.

I think you can get drag radials up to 335 or 345 I'd have to look but they do go bigger than 315.

that should help, gives tire size vs rim width in the first post.
