The width of the rim will make it a tall rounded tire, or flat square tire.

The drag racers usually use a 6 in wide rim, where duners usually go to a 8 to 10 inch wide rim.

the reason UL are rounded is because there is less rubber there to hold the form the rim holds the sides in the only way the tire can expand is out (ballon effect)

"hella power" creates top speed. You can hook up any amount of power with UL's and they will also give you the best top end also.

I cant think of any drag racer that runs a 6 inch wide wheel. We all run 8's and 9's
