Default M/T Drag Radials 255/50-16

so is anyone running a Mickey Thompson Drag Radial on the stock 16" ponies, I'm particularly interested in the 255/50-16 size of the ET that they offer. I'll be sitting on Ford B springs and really want to keep my quad shocks...

I don't have them myself, but a friend does, and he snapped his stock axles with a 4K launch attempt, and he has maybe 220 horsepower. Does that help? They definitely stick.
