Anyone running a 28 x 10.5 radial on a 15" wheel?

Who is running this? How do the handle on the street? How do you like them? I want to put some on my car and be able to drive it to car shows and the track instead of having to trailer it so I guess I am limited to a radial. What would you recommend?

I was in the same dilemma. I went w/ a 295/55/15 mickey thompson et street drag radial to drive to the track and car shows. Drives good on the street and hooks great at the track. I am also seeing better trap speeds at the track. However, I am an auto car. Looking at your sig, you have an m6. Dumping the clutch out of the hole will shock the rear tires w/ a drag radial. You're going to need a bias ply for the track if you stay w/ the m6.

You're going to need a bias ply for the track OR a lot of time to dial in the suspension and launching technique if you stay w/ the m6.

Yes, you guys are correct that it can be done. However, I haven't seen too many w/ the suspension know-how and the patience to do so. For the average racer, it's just easier to throw on a bias ply to cushion all the flaws one might have in their suspension. It's the easy way out I guess.
