I use American Racing Equipment Bajas-16x10" as someone mentioned--I think Johnny Lightning offers them. They are ver light weight --good rims for racin'.

HI!... MICKEY THOMPSON is supposed to be releasing a 16x11.50 ET STREET later this SUMMER. As for the BAJA RIMS, they are light but the back spacing is not what I like. It makes the rims stick WAY out side the truck 1/4 panels. I'm talking about the BAJA 16x10 not 16x8.

These are not m/t's, i will tell you that much, but they are 28in slicks that fit on 16in rims.I have had the 16 in m/ts for over two years but want a true slick that is 28 in tall. I may not be able to get ahold of the source till monday.

Neal, i want mine before nex,t summer...i need to have them on by early march in order to run some 11's. m/t has taken to long so i will go with this other wrinkle wall. Not sure if my new set up will do 11,s in mid summer,thats assuming m/t actually puts them out by then
