I guess everyone has their own opinion, but I think it looks like ass.

Yep, as far as looks, that's worse than the bulding tires... but at least they would handle a lot better.

I also like the look of a 275 tire on a 8" wheel

BTW, I was wrong those weren't drag radials on my rear wheels. They were just reg tires, don't remember what kind tho...I know they were 275's!! I was mistaken because I had an extra set of wheels with some drag radials on them, 15 inch wheel...
