    I run either a 30x9 or 29x10 depending on stk when I go to buy. my time a 8 wide with 4.5 bs. I think 1os would help my footprint with 29x10. I see at least an inch maybe more that doesn't get much wear. but for mine I think 5.5bs would work best and let it centered ss it is now......I could go another 1/2" in but not sure I go all the to 6.5.

    but clear on the sells car it worked well

    I have 26x10x15 slicks on a 15x8 wheel. Make sure your backspacing is right. With an 8" wheel, you want 4.5" of BS. With a 10" wheel you'll need @5.5" to keep it centered in the wheel well. And a 28" tire might be getting a bit tall and hitting up in there. Airbags will be a must.

    What is your rearend gear that you want that size tire? What kind of rpm are you looking for at the end of the quarter mile?
