Default Need to get drag radials But what size??

I am building my 99 Sierra reg cab step side. I am going to need some sort of drag radial or slick. I plan on using my stock aluminum GMC wheel. What is the biggest size tire that I can fit on it. I think they are a 16x7. Any thoughts? I also have a 4/6 drop with cal tracs and rear disc.thanks

Off the top of my head, i know of Mickey Thompson ET Streets in 28x11.50r16, but they're not radials. My friend ran these tires (in 26'') on his daily driven Mustang and had no problems, except in rain it would get a little squirley under heavy acceleration.

Try $660.00 + shipping + mounting + valvetems & lugs. Unless you want a heavy *** steel wheel.
