27" or 28" tire
Hello!
Currently I am running 275/40/17 street tires at the track on my stalled auto Trans AM. I starting to go fast enough were I am hitting 4th going through the traps @ around 114. My car has a 3600 stall and 4.11's with a 4l60e.
I was thinking of going to a 28" tire to give me more room. Or maybe a 27" tire.
Thoughts? Opinions?

What distance away from the traps are you shifting into fourth or are you shifting right at the trap? If right at the trap or close enough have you tried to push it past your shift point to see if the vehicle possibly picks up or if you are to far out and can't turn enough RPM then that will decide what tire height to go with to gain the extra distance you need.
