I don't have a pic, but a friend of mine was running those tires on his stock 17X8 rims.

how do they look....... doest it bearly fit or is it just right on a 17x8 also how do they hook

They look like they fit fine. If you are just going to use them for the track, they will be fine. In fact I should have got them instead of the M&H 275/50/17 as these tires are a little too tall.

Are you talking about the Mickey Thompson ET Streets that are bias ply tires and not radials? Their measurements are 26x11.5x17. Drag radials are usually measured something like 275/50/17.

If you are talking about the ET Streets, then they are not 11.5" wide, for some reason they measure the DOT ET Streets differently. Their treadwidth is actually 9.5" wide. I have these tires on stock 17x8" wheels for the track, they fit fine.

do you have any pictures of them

The size you're talking about is not a drag radial....This is a 275/40/17 DR, the biggest that fits on a stock rim.

.....NT-555R BTW

As far as hooking, they made my car wheelhop badly when I went to the track so idk that much. They did pretty well on the street though and the shorter sidewall(shorter gearing) was noticible and made the car more fun.

IMO the tires look too small on the car, height-wise

Diabolical!

The size you are referring to is bias ply, not radial. Look in my garage pics on my profile. I have a couple of pics of my 26x11.5x17 M/Ts on the car.
