26 or 28 ET Drag I am trying to get some info together. Are most guys running 28" ET drags or do you think a 26" would suffice most of the LS1 modded cars. I am talking on more of a heads and cam type car. With or without N2O. What has been your experience. Thanks, Christopher
I vote for 26's, I think 28's on a conservatively geared H/C car are overkill.
I see streetracers running 28's on the street but they need to overcompensate for racing on cold asphalt. I bet most of the 28"'d street racer guys are undergeared and don't hit low 1.5's at the track.

i can't remember if i told you this when you asked over the weekend so i'll say here.
i think you should try the 26 first, same tire i have 26X11.5X15 at a nice low PSI, you have enough suspension and the right gear to hook it at a decent track I believe.
if you spray, no way the 26 will hold, will need a bigger tire for that.

Well it depends.
A 28x9x15 ET Drag is like a narrow 27, so it fits no problem (15x8 rim).
28x10.5x15 stuff does not just go in, you end up having to clearance on the inside to make them fit.
