Default Tire Sizes for my Notch

I was wondering what would be a good tire size for drag radials on my notch. I was looking at some that are 10x26x15.. Would that be ok?

i like 26" tire w/ 4.10's

go through the traps in 4th at about 5500

full slick usuallymeasures at 10" cheaters 10 1/2" like adder said

to go 10/12" you need to reverse or remove the quads and other than that no problem at all. you may have an issue w/ the wheel well slicing the sidewall a bit...my '89 did that w/ et streets on convo pro's but an easy fix w/ a single bag on the rt side and 8 psi in the bag

here are et street radials from the rear on my '93....and i 'll post post et street bias ply on my '89 if i find a pic here







can't see the back tires lol...posted anyways
