So what's the actual size of a 275 drag radial?
They are taller than 28 inches correct?
Do they still run a 12 inch wide rim with a 10 inch wide tire?

275 tread width 9.8" D 28.2
315 tread width 11.4 D 29.9

they do run wide rims, not sure what size,

the tires look pretty small under the cars, was down at No Mercy 8.

12" Beadlock seems to be pretty common

Lost in the semis to the event winner. They threw some power at it and spun.

Track was "iffy" at best after the rain. Had bald spots on starting line and out further as well. Finding a good spot was tough to hit it with any power. We went 1.07 the first round, but the car just got a tiny bit out of groove and spun the tires at about 200 ft and our day was done
