I'm gonna get a set of 26" DR, but I have to drive about an hour to get to the GOOD track. I might go with the real slicks, but have had to drive thru rain to get to the track, and it was dry there, so I don't know??

I habn't really decided yet, but they have them at Jegs, and Summit. I don't know if the stock 16' or some black regular steel rims would work better for me. I'll have to get something for the front too, 32" mudders suck at the track. they are heavy, and spin wayyyyy too much.

Ok Thanx guys. I'm going to call Summit tomorrow and see about getting a set. So what size is most of every one running on the stock 7inchers and having good luck with? Should I go with a pure slick or just an et street radial? Tube or not?
