28" tall fronts seem to be the limit w/5" or more front drop before constant scrubbing becomes an issue. 215/70-16's are 27.85" tall. I've seen guys run shorter but it looks awkward IMHO.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
