17s fit.

Get something light.

Hoosier DOT drags are the best. They are a true drag tire. Nittos have a very stiff sidewall.

You can't drive the Hoosiers on the street as the sidewall is too weak.

Thanks everyone for all of the advice. I appreciate it. I recently bought some M/T ET Street Radials 265/40/18. I dropped the pressure down to 20psi did a good burnout and was able to hook up great. 1.70 60'. I am not sure what my time is when corrected to sea level.

I'm sure someone here will know the calculation. Seems like a great time given the DA! Congrats on the beast!
