Next month there will be some M/T radials that are 27.7" and fit 16" rims

I had the 26" ones and they hooked like a mother and drove great on the highway up to 125 mph

I also had the 26" Mickeys on a 16" wheel but I blew the tires off for about 15'-20' out of the whole in 80º weather and 25'-30' in 65º weather. I'm getting a taller tire this time around.
