Since you are looking to run them all summer long, Nitto's. Look for ones that would be the same size as what you already have.

Not sure if they even make drag radials for 16inch rims, otherwise check out the nitto 555R

Yeah! Get a 10.5 rim in the back hooked up to a pair of 315`s. It will look bad a$$ You will have to upgrade to a 17" rim though.

Yeah, if you upgrade to a 17 inch rim you can run 315's like mine in the rear. They look HAWT.

RE: drag radials?
