Default Mickey Thompson...

I will have a 427 solid roller within the year with a 125 shot. Is a 26X11.50X16 Mickey Thompson ET Street going to be enough, or do I have to push it to a 28" to hook? Secondly, the Bogart RR10's look awesome, but it says road race. Would their be any inclination to those wheels being bad for drag racing? Thanks. BTW, if need be, I would get the bolted rt's in a 15 since my calipers have allready been shaved.

The RRs are heavier. I would go with the D10s for drag racing. How much hp do you plan on making with the 427 on the gas?

Since it is solid roller, atleast 720 with the gas.
