I wonder if you could cut up a set of rims to make a 9" wide 16" stock appearing rim?

I want a pair ... I imagine I will need them when I get the blower on. Street tires more than likely won't stick well.
Do they make a 29 or 30 inch tire like that?

I had good luck this season with the MT ET streets 28x11.50-16 on light 16x8 centerlines.
My last run of the year I left them on for the 100 mile trip home with 25psi w/out a problem. The last 15 miles was full throttle too(I live in the boonies)

I doubt they would make one for a 20" rim. The whole idea behind a slick is to have sidewall for it to wrinkle and 'slingshot' you off the line. With a 20" rim, you wouldn't be able to get enough sidewall to be worth while and still tuck it under most fender wells.
