Ten holes are 7 inches wide. I had 275/50/15 mr drs that's the
Biggest you can go it did bulg I little bit. Just set it at 15-17 psi and launch the shit out of it lol. That's what I did was getting 1.7 60's on pretty much stock suspension

why not run a 27x8 slick? i'm only on a 9inch and my car can run 1.42-1.46's 60ft's.. it's not just about tire size.. it's about the contact patch on the ground.. if you put to big of a tire on that rim. it's just going to cup your tread patch.. and that is not good for traction. [patriot]

edit.. have been 11.004 @ 124 on a 235/60/15 mt dr's with the best 60ft of 1.46.. just a thought.. bigger isn't always the best way.. [Wink]
