My 26" drag radials are pretty much shot. Im going to try to hold them out for a night at lebanon but that will finish them off. I have f1 supercar tires in my attic that are almost new. They are 295/35/18’s. I was going to put them on after these radials were whooped, but I like hooking. I was going to change my rear end gears because I dont like them, but I dont know how long it will be until I can get around to that… so I was looking at replacing my 26"s with 28" tires. My only question is, sense I am lowered, will I have problems? the 26’s are cutting it close right now and I am not sure if the bigger tire will be pushing it to much. I was looking at these tires… [http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MNH-ROD22/](http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MNH-ROD22/) ---

Not bad for getting them for 37.50 each! Find someone with a set of 28’s to try before you buy them, since you technically can’t return them after mounting. ---
