This is a 1/4 mile truck correct? If so why would you put such a wide tire up front?

You get the diameters exactly the same front and rear? Hard to do with tires that staggered.

I'm using those Taylor 10.4mm wires too. Have you put them on yet? Mine are a little on the short side, they fit, but they are tight.

Which tire are you using for the rear? How much did you widen the wheels? 2"?

I widened my rear wheels (same wheel that you're using) 2" and a 295 series tire sits "flush" with the rim.
