Default Drag radials or z-types for 14" Mag 500?

Hey guys,

Back again! Been having way too much fun burning the rear tires off my 69 Mach I, and those magnum 500s look pretty good on it--looking for some better cornering and gripping power, wondering if anyone could hook me up with some z-type or drag radial tires (preferrably domestic, like BFG or goodyear) for the 14" Magnum 500. I'm unsure as to their width (6 or 7 or 8", not sure), but I would like to get the rear tires as wide as possible on these rims (I'm not expecting 335s here, but approx. 10" wide would look pretty sweet!) Thanks for the help.

do not go with drag radials, they wear out quickly and are designed to have weak sideways for better FORWARD traction, I really recomend getting a 15 inch rim put on your Magnum 500 hub
