We're researching the same to determine if we can run a 30x9.

Steve at Hoosier tire:
The radial does not grow. It is easier to spin if the track is not good.
The Bias tire will grow about 3" in circumference, or about 1" in diameter, on the 8" or 10" wheel at 120MPH. You will get more runs from the bias tire.

They recommend the same burn out for both tires. The 10" wheel will give a slightly flatter footprint meaning a little more rubber on the ground, not a big difference.
