Re: tires that will pull the wheels
ive got a pic in a mag of a 4.6 stang pulling the wheels at e-town on 275 bfg's. depends on track prep but id say those bfg's are probably the smallest you could go with. ive also seen my friend pull the wheels with 275 50 15 bfg's.

26*15*10 ET Drags will definitely do it, as I have just found out. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
