Well, I just got off the phone with Tom, an engineer at M&H Tires (Interco).
After speaking with him about the above pictured Nostalgia Slick, it sounds like it is a perfect fit for my application, and others as well.

The Nostalgia Slick is 31.83 inches tall, has a 12" wide contact patch, and will mount on any wheel between 8-12" wide! :)
It is rated to go over 250 mph's! :eek2:
IMO, This is the "PEFRECT" Truck Drag Slick! and is also M&H's recommendation for truck use.
Why is this the perfect Truck Drag Slick? Glad you asked :devil:

It is constructed with several beneficial characteristics for Truck use.
1. The side walls are stiffer than the average Drag Slick which allows the tire to handle the weight of a truck during launch (i.e. weight transfer), as most trucks are considerably heavier than a typical 1/4miler.
2. The Compound used on this Slick is softer than the typical Drag Slick, which really helps our light in the ass trucks hook up! :drive:
3. In addition, these tires can be air'd down to 7psi (at 250+ mph), for a wrinkle wall effect and added traction if needed. However, they can also be run at standard air pressures.
4. This is the tire that M&H recommends for for the Desiel crowd as they are able to handle the very high torque these powertrains put down.
5. They can and are used in a 4 wheel configuration as well.

Looks like I know what I'm getting :judge:
