Two questions, can I run them tubeless, and can I run them on a 14 inch wide rim? They save 16 lbs over what I run now.

And yes...Likely a bit more rollout than what you have currently

Thanks Al and FM, I have the same rollout as these are , but will be on the wide rim so I assume I will lose a bit going up two inch over measured rim width? If they will hook as well as the 2078 Goodyears, (33x15x15 Stiff) it ought to pick up a few hundredths in ET. 16 lbs lighter, plus less drag, plus more air pressure, I assume? I have never tried anything on this car except a 14.5x15 radial drag slick, which almost crashed my car.

FWIW we run a 29.5x10.5 on a 12" rim on the Vette. Our dragster has a 33.5x13.5 on a 16" wide rim, and my Stratus will be sporting a 33.5x10.5W on a 16" wide rim if we can get the tranny figured out at SCSN.

Not to seal the thread, Al, but do you run the 29.5x10.5 on beadlock rim, screwed, or just glued ?

I don't run tubes, in fact we don't run them in any of the cars. All three have double bead locks though. We have run with tubes on the 29.5x10.5 stuff in the Vette and we were actually slower. FWIW I think any option will work on a 29.5x10.5 deal. Glue works well for most. I would not use screws, and beadlocks just make life easier.
FWIW the dragster and my Stratus both 60' 1.0X and the Vette is usually 1.13-1.15

33 x 10.5W-15 are huge. Why such a big tire, couldn't you get away with a 31 x105W? Too much rear gear already with a 4.56 driving a 103 rollout Goodyear.

4.10 with a 10.5wx31 would haul. Doug That would bring my rpm in the traps down a couple hundred to about 7200 from 7400 i would guess ? Doug, why do you think a 4.10 rather than my current 4.56, and shorter tire would be faster, and where would the gains be, 60 ft or down track, or both?
