need some tire help for track
i am looking to purchase mickey thompson drag radials but not sure what size. I am currently running stock wheels and tires and have 3.70 gears. For the track i want to run a smaller tire to try to get my gear ratio closer to 4.10 if possible. Can anyone help me pick the proper size to get me in that range?

I am looking at the et street radial. I guess I can't get anything less than 26.1 I hope its slightly shorter than my stock tire so I get a bump in gear for the track. I am probably going to go with the 255/50r16.
