I was wondering if I could run 8in wheels with 26-10-15 slicks or 275-50-15 drag radials. The books say to use 8.5in wheels but those are hard to find.

I have had both 275/50s and 26x10.5s on 8 inch draglites and 8 inch rallys with no problem. Went low 12's on both.

Can I stuff those 275/50's into a 7inch wheel???
