I have found that dragsters don't need a super wide combination to work, 33X12 on a 10" rim works for 97% of the cars out there

gregm784:
I run M&H fuel tires, either 12.00x16 or 13.00x16.  12.00 on a 10" rim, 13.00 on an 11" rim.  the 13 narrow up to 11 at 185mph.  the 13.00 is actually 12.25" wide.  More tire than that, and it's a royal bitch keeping the tire speed up, and tire shake becomes very real.

JrFuel Hayden:
Greg, as I remember it, you have been running the NTF tires for about 2-3 years, what kind of tire pressure and launch RPM is working for you ?

gregm784:
Made the move to the fuel tire about 8 years Jon. 12.00 for a few years, been on 13.00 for about 4 years.

as low as 7.5, as high as 8.5 

Launch RPM is about 5,000.  it varies with tire pressure & track condition.

nostalgic371:
If the M&H 13.00's measure 12.25'' what do their 12.00x16's measure for width?
