I Just bought these and spent most of the day Saturday getting them to fit.... :( Kinda upset it broke before I even got to spray the damn thing, fuel pump died and it leaned out and busted the number 4 piston and scored the cylinder wall pretty bad.... Anyhow here is the only picture I got, after I got them to fit! Not much room but they did not rub at all.

Not at all, drove it all around after I got them on. Love the drag radials, they hooked and rode like a stock tire. I went so big because I have a 4.56 gear and just put a nitrous kit on my car.

That looks like an 8" wheel. Does that tire measure 28" or is it bigger? Been meaning to try some of those.

It is a 8 inch wheel, and they measure 29 inches.

I'm not trying to be a dick but its pretty damn hard to hurt a motor on motor only like that... I've cuked my tank try on the big end with a more aggreavie motor tan yours several times and never hurt it. You sure you did spray it and have it way too fat and fuel loaded the ring glands?
