I have also run the Toyo's but the standard for 4-speeds are 29.5x9S M/T's.
You can PM me if you like.

Will radials work on a stick car?

I know the traditional answer is no, but I too wonder as a dragpak has a very different suspension system than traditional stockers.

Anyone?

For Larry, the answere is no...but that doesn't mean that somebody could tackle it and be the one who figures it out. But for a new stick racer and combo, sort it out thoroughly with bias slicks and have a complete understanding of how the parts interact before attempting a radial transformation.
And it's not like any DP Challenger needs an extra tenth or so anyways...right

Local bracket guy asked me about the radials because he had the MT Bias. I told him they are usually good for .06-.08. He said that was exactly what he picked up using tubes.

Things that make you go Hmmmmm.......

Larry, there are many higher-classed Stockers working well with a Stick & Radials right now. A couple of them are right there in Minnesota.
