    rolling on sixteens!!

    Hey everybody, putting 16's on the truck makes it look a whole lot different, at least to me. I'm not too sure that I like how it looks. This setup will be for the 1/4 mile this summer. On the plus size, they are a whole lot lighter. Tire size is 275/70R16, treadwear rating 240, hopefully they will stick.

    Tell me what you think.

    I am a big fan of the smaller wheels, should hook better then your other wheels and tires too, dont know if it will solve your traction problems though. you might want to invest in some traction bars if you really want to hook.
