Or possibly know what size runs well similar to these on the stock 16" pony's? I am speaking of the rear tires.

No I don't have any pics of them, they were on my Green supercharged LX hatch. They kind of bulge outward from the rim as you can see in the pics you have posted. I had Saleen racecraft springs with tokicko blues. They hooked unbelievably well on the streets. I think those tires were responsible for my tranny going out they hooked so hard.

Do you still have the Bimini blue hatch from Salinas ? I almost bought it from the dude over by star market.

Yea. That hatch is well built. I think the guys name was Greg. When I was looking to buy it, it had TF heads , stock mani, equal length headers with heat shields , stock cam and a built rear end and 10 hole wheels . I had offered him 4 for it but he wouldn't take it, so I ended up buying my green hatch. My mom was a care taker for his neighbor and that's how I found out about it. It's a keeper for sure, have you done any upgrades since you have owned it ?

A few, but when I purchased the car, there was a lot more done than you mentioned. I have receipts for almost everything. [Big Grin]

You sir are wrong. Mickey Thompson does not make a 275/16 inch drag radial.

You sir are also wrong.... There is no way a 295 series tire would fit on a 7 inch wide rim. Trust me, I am a tire and rim guru. They are 255/50/16 M/T dr's.
