How tall is that tire? Looks kinda tall.
They are 27"
How much power are you making and what gears (ratio) are you running?

Not sure of the power yet...have to get it dynoed. Im going to guess 240 maybe...or not. I have 3.73 gears. I was running last year with the 255/40/17(just a hair over 25")a trap speed of 105 @ 13.7...so i know I will slow down MPH wise, but I hope I will have better gears now. I was running out. I do plan on running these tires on my fulltime drag car when it is done, so I was also thinking ahead when buying the taller tire. I was also told that the gear I lose with the height, i will gain in traction.

You may have a bad bogging problem w/ low power and a tall tire. I woulda went w/ 26's. JMO though.

I was looking at getting a pair of these. I have 15" weld drag lites with 245/60 r15's on there right now. I am in desperate need of new tires. Should I go with the same size as you? I know for a fact I have 240 hp. I also plan on getting rid of my 3.55 for either a 3.73 or 4.10 soon

Raining on my parade...I see how ya are. I'm not worried

I have no bogging now, it is perfect when I let it go around 3500 RPM's...feels great. Maybe I just wont heat them...we will see

LOL no just trying to give some insight. You're not bogging now b/c you are on street tires correct? Those M/T's are gonna be a big surprise!!!

No, I was talking about running the M/T's. On street tires, I would totally blow them off dropping it at 2200RPM. I am very impressed with the M/T's and I don't think I will have any issues that I can't work out. Maybe I have a little more power than I think...don't know.
