MT 295/45 17's
Does anyone have any real world experience with these Drag Radials from Mickey Thompson (# 3745R)? I've seen a few good posts from Cobra and Supra guys but not much from the GM 4th Gen crowd. I could use a slighty taller street/strip tire as my 275 40's don't hook that well.

Not to hijack my own thread (is that possible?) but anyway from what I read you can, although it's not "recommended". I found a few Stang guys running similar sized tires on 17x9's with no issues.
Here's a quick break down on ratios of popular drag radials for a potentaial 17x9 candidate
P275/40R17 = 26" tall/tread width 10.0"
P275/50R17 = 28" tall/tread width 8.8" (M&H, ppl say they run narrow)
P325/45R17 = 28" tall/tread width 10.3" (M&H, ppl say they run narrow)
P295/45R17 = 27.2" tall/tread width 10.6" (Mickey Thompson)
