Default Will these fit stock rims?

Just curious if these will fit on some stock rims. I really like the Nitto DRs, and reading from other posts, they last quite a few miles on the street.

I'm pretty sure they'll fit, so I'm ordering them today!!!! They are some damn good looking tires, and I love NItto tires.

I think you are going to be disspointed with them in your application. At only 25.5" tall and about a 8.5" tread patch, I dont believe they are going to hook like you will expect them too. Are you getting these for the street or for the track? If for the track, skip the drag radials and go for a set of ET Streets. But if you are looking for a true drag radial to leave on the truck all the time, you might want to consider a new set of rims and the 305/45/18 or slap a set of the 275-40-17 on you current rims.

I'm mainly looking for something I can slap on at the shop on Friday afternoons to run on the street and strip. I'm still considering buying a cheap set of 16x8 or 16x9 wheels and going with the ET Streets. I don't remember, but what setup do you run at the track? It doesn't seem like you have any trouble hooking at the track.

I was using 26x10.50 on stock aluminum wheels, Now I have a set of 26x11.50 on the same wheels.

What would be better suited for my application, the 26x10.5 or the 26x11.5?
