street tires I would go with p265/40/17 I like the tread pattern look and price of the Fuzion tire that is sold at the Bridgestone/Firestone dealers. (no I don't work for them) I was told you can purchase that for under 120 per tire? I don't know much about the draglite wheel other than I have seen them offered in 15 inch sizes,you want to find a tire for drags that measures aprox 26 inch o.d. and aprox 10 inch wide? I have seen aftermarkeT 17X9 wheels that look like a cobra wheel but claim to weigh only 21 lbs each,I would use the BF Goodrich drag radials on the back.

If you happen to get your hands on the January 2005 edition of 5.0 Mustang & Super Fords, they have an article entitled, "Fit and Finsish". They are many respected wheel & tire suplliers that give advice as to what wheel/tire combination will fit both Fox bodies ('79-'93) and '94-'04 mustangs. It was a real help for me as I now think I'll get 275/35/18 Nittos instead of 265/35/18.
P.S. They don't mention drag strip rims/tires. :color:
