Drag radials?

My cousin has a 05 vette with 325/30/19 on it now but he wants to buy a set of drag radials for it.. What size or brand would yall run without any rubbing issues? the tires are on stock wheels...Thanks in advance

And Mt are a very good tire... not sure how tall u can go on 19s, but on some spare 16" rims I run 26" tall tires and cut some decent 60s.

I thought C5's and C6's couldn't run any rim smaller than 17's

I don't think they offer that tire in a 19... I was in the same dilemma and I ended up going with the toyo r888... the mt drag radials looked nice but I wanted something that would handle street driving and get decent traction... i havent really tested the r888's out yet but i will see if they work in a few weeks when i get out to the track again... if I was looking for a drag only 19" tire i would probably go with the mt's... the nt05r would be a good choice too if you can fit a 345... tire selection sucks for 19s
