Have a look on the Micky Thompson web site I had some 16" Mickeys in a 50 profile on the back of my FD a couple of years ago that were dot approved .

In theory you could muller your diff with road tyres too. Do you have a diff brace fitted. How much wheel hop did you get last time ? An old member blew his stock diff up on a burnout before running down the strip with stock ports and stock turbo pack. All be it running as sweet as a nut and did a 12sec pass!

Some suppliers in the UK:
