Tire Size on Drag Style Rims...
I can get a good deal on either some Draglites or Prostars from a local wheel shop. So I am wondering, Everyone running 15s what size tires are you running. I have 255/50/15s now, The width is ok but its too small of a tire. Lemme know what size you are running. And If you happen to have a picture that would help too. Thanks Guys!

What size of rims are you going to get? 15x10s... 15x8s... 15x9s?
I have some 15x9s (back) 15x7s (front) right now they look good (don't have tires, caps, or lugs so I don't have them on yet). Could go up to 15x10 with a 5.5 backspacing.

I've been wondering the same question.
I'm going with Centerline Warriors 15x7 on front and 15x8.5 on rear.
