horsepower and tire/traction
ok, first off whats the biggest tire i can fit in my fox without tubbing? Second, if i am pushing about 500hp to the wheels, is tubbing needed? If not, what tire is reccommended? also, will i be able to hook-up with-out a 4-link set-up, and just upgrading to drag launch springs/struts, control arms, battle boxes, etc ?

RE: horsepower and tire/traction
size doesnt matter nearly as much as the type of tire
There are people running 8 second times on a 10" slick
no street tire will hook well for 500hp at the wheels, some will be better than others, but youll be hard pressed to actually hook
