also, if the 15" is available, wouldn't it make more sense to run the et drag vs the ET street?

Yes it would and.........voowalla......you've finally hit the mark. If you un a 15" wheel x10 you can put the MT 28-15-10.5Ws on. The will hold you, at least, up to 450rwhp without slipping. Run them at 16lbs. I am getting 1.72-1.74 60' times.

I run 18psi with no tubes. Those running lower pressure, do you have tubes? I'm kind of scared to run any lower than like 17 or so.

I've run mine as low as 13lbs., but found I got better times (60') with the higher pressure. No tubes

Rim size totally matters when your racing.

Two trucks same mods exact same times bone stock.

One truck has a 28" slick with a 16 inch rim!
The other has a 28" slick with a 15inch rim!

WHICH TRUCK IS GOING TO HOOK UP BETTER?



You guys are to easy to mess with, HEHEHEHE.
Later!

By the way, what ever happened to that guy that had all of us sign that petition for MT to make a taller 16 inch tire?????

I'm picking up some 26x11.5x16 's this tuesday - does it matter that my truck is going to sit lower in the back than the front? My rear is 2" lower already, and putting on the 26's is going to make my rear about 1.5/2" lower...

outrageous01,

I think you about found the limits on the F1's. I can't imagine low 12's in an L with street tires, unless you pull some insane HP up top.
