I had the same thoughts Kremit. However you have to take into account the extra unsprung mass of bigger wheels. I have never dragged the contour with different sized wheels, so I can't attest to the difference.

Also a nice set of drag radials would do a lot to help 60 ft times as well as overall eta. And they definetely wouldn't be stock. I think we need some clarification to this idea...
