I was running 26x11.5 16's and pulled a 1.75 60', now I just got some 27x10.5 16's thinking the tires were the reason I couldn't hook. I've just realized it was my suspension. Now I just have to get a chance to run it.

K here are my options...Ive got escalade wheels 17"..but can get two 16's if needed. Think im better off to go with the 26" tall 17"(only size available for 17", or go with the 28" tall 16" ones? what would be better?
thnks

i think i decided to go with a MT drag radial for the street. planned on going 315/60/15 they claim 29.8" tall which woudl be nice on the street instead of my ET streets and their winkle walls

hoping a stiffer sidewall helps out more being im a stick

I come out of the hole at 2750 rpms on about a 75 shot and progress 1.5 seconds up to the 125 shot. This would hook after a good burnout. View video in sig. That is about a 70-75 shot out of the hole and on 26" m/t et radails. 1.75 60'
