Last season I ran with 315/30/18's BFG drag tire on 10.5 inch rim. At the track with the 315's the best I did was 11.1 @ 133mph. On the street the 315's would lite up 1st,2nd and 3rd gear. At the end of last year I switched to 345/30/18's BFG drag tire on a 12 inch rim. Now on the street I was able to hook the top of 1st gear. I think 10.8's / 10.9's @ 136mph should be possible, I will have to see! By the way with the new found traction 3.73 gear might be going in soon. The 345 BFG is one sick tire!!!!!!!!!
