Correct-o-mundo! A 16" rim will clear the "Base" brakes. If you are running the Sport brakes the smallest you are going to run is an 18" rim. A Street/Drag Radial in 18" is pretty much worthless at this power level. Regardless of how soft the compound is there is not enough sidewall to create a wrinkle/flex and grab traction.

On our 1,000+ HP Mustangs we run a 15" rim in the rear with a 28"x10.5" slick.

Hope this clears it up for those who are asking.
