Too not true, M&H RACEMASTER 305/40-16 fit like a glove and no rubbing. They are a DOT wrinkle wall slick and hook like a *****. I had them on my 16x8 TA wheels and you couldn't ask for a better fit. These tires were made specifically for the 16x8 wheel. I have a set with only about 4 passes on them and maybe 2,000 miles on the street I'll sell you for $ 125

If its just drag racing then throw a 255/50/16 MT DR like you mentioned... I ran that for several years and loved it. I pulled a 1.45 60' with that exact tire/rim combo.
If you wanna drive it on the street, it will still work, but you have some *** whobble due to the taller sidewall.
