Hi Folks,
I have a question - or need a favor from someone. Regarding the BFG Drag radials in 275/60/15 size..what is the ACTUAL WIDTH of the tire, when mounted and full of air - from sidewall bulge to sidewall bulge? Also, what is the height of the tire mounted on the car, full of air, etc. from the ground to the top of the tire?
Seems every brand offering the same size tires (ie. 275/60/15) are all different sizes in actuality. I bought 275/60/15 M&H Racemasters, and they are 1.25 inches wider than my useless 275/60/15 BFG Radial T/A's that I use for fun, but they rub bad.
Now, I want to go with BFG Drag Radials and need the exact measurements before getting burned again.
If anyone could measure their BFG's or any other 275/60/15 -size tire and post back with the bulge-bulge width, and actual height...i would be forever greatful. It doesn't have to be exact - eyeballing with a T-square Is close enough. I just cant afford to be off 1.25 inches between brands again.
Thanks guys
Jay
