I am thinking of getting 9x30 I can get 8 or 10" rims what would be better.Right now I have 29x10 on 8 1/2 rims,456gear with a 511rb motor,308r cam it gets 1.404 to 1.41 60ft and 6.40s 1/8 mile.~~ bent

10" will work the best. All the stock eliminator guys use 30X9 on 10", thats enough evidence for me. The question is will they fit the wheel openings.

Well the 8 1/2" that I have now are 4 1/2" bs the 10" will be 5 1/2" bs I will make room for the 30".The 29" is close real close. I will get the 10" I may get 10.5s later.~~bentwheel

Are saying you could use a 9x30 tire on a 12" rim?

I hope the 9" hold the car with the 511" it has SD intake,eddy head,850 holley.It will be 50# lighter on the front-a fiberglass hood,mini starter,2 135x15r tires on 4" rims it had 6"rims and tires.The 10"x29 that I have is 91.5" rollout worked good but the 9"x30 rollout is 94" maybe will work better with 456 gear. Dose anyone run in the high 9s on 9" tires.

I don't know about high 9s, but I have a buddy that has a 72 Duster that has SS springs and 28x9 rear slicks, and he just ran a 10.23 at Milan two weeks ago.

When I won the footbrake championship at my home track in 2006,I was running 9x30 Hoosier radials on a 10" wheel.

not low 9's..but here's a pic of my car. im using 30x9 Hoosiers radial slicks and a 10 inch wheel. 3550# 60ft 1.4x's. the radials are great on a well prepped track, not so great on marginal tracks. they were over .10 in et better than my bias-ply slicks,and they are much more stable at the big end. we run around 18.5 lbs of air pressure.
