Lets see what size slick or drag radial you guys are running.

Also what size wheel and back spacing.

 

Good idea. Wanna start it off ?

 

yea heres mine with a 15x10 6" BS and a M/T 28x10.5S ET Drag

 

im running a 15x8 wheel with 255/55 drag radials on them

i think its with 5" BS

 

3.5" front, 10" rear weld prostars.
hoosier front runners, and hoosier 28x10.5 rears.
5.5" backspacing on the rears.

 

I'll be the first to post up the 28x11.5's ( 9 inch tire) on 15x8 wheel with
4.5 BS........***Yawn**** I want to go to 15x10 wheel soon.

 

you must have a ton of romm between the tire and INNERfender well?????
im lookin to use a similar sized tire
mt et street 28x12.5x15=same size as yours

 

15x10 weld draglites 5.5"bs w 275 mt street radials... pic in sig theyre about even with the fender lip, not quite "tucked"

 

anyone running a 325/50/15 M/T drag radial?

or how about a 28x10.5W M/T Et Drag Slick.


i just bought a set of 10.5w's ill be putting them on soon. ill have some photos

 

15x10 Billet Specialties Street Lites, 6.5" backspacing, 5/16" spacer, 29x9 Hoosier Slick, fronts are 15x4 with 1.75" backspacing, ls1 brake upgrade, and 5/16" spacer running a 165radial (going to go to a 27" hoosier up front)

 

15x15 - 5" bs, 33x10.5W - either going to less bs with the dbl bead locks or a wider rear when I swap it out. They need to be about 1.5 further out.


the car is about 1" lower in the front now, working on a front gfx.

 

one of my all time favorite cars here, between you greeze and ross lol. made me change my mind about the Billet Specialties wheels too...didn't really like them till i saw them on your car and RTK's

 

15x10 w/6" of back spacing with 295-65, this is old car, but same wheel and tire combo on new car

 

Damn stiletto, i always thought that was the best tire fit i have seen yet for these, i think i will run the same size but i am trying to see what i have to do for the wheel.

 

hey stileto was wondering what you had to do to the wheel wells to fit that wheel and tire combo thanks

 

15*4 in front with M/T sportsman and 15*9 With M/T et streets.

 

325/50/15 on 15x10 6.5" BS:


295/65/15 on z28's:

 

28x12.50 et street
15x10 6.5bs

28x7.50
m/t sportsman pro
15x4 rims

 

82z what'd the tread wear look like on those 295s running on those 7 inch wheels? i may have to keep using those if it seemed ok

 

I see no problem with the tires. Without the tires mounted on wheels, the bead width is quite close to 7" which is why I thought to use the stockers. Haven't gotten the motor setup quite right yet, but while the race motor was broke, the turbo on the 305 made for a wheelie on a semi-slick track.

 

i run the 275/60 15's on stock 7 inch rims and love the look.

 

15x15, 5.5" backspace 32x14 slicks.

 

i just got my 28x10.5W slicks. im having second thoughts now. Id like to go with a drag radial. Ive been looking at the 275/60/15 M/T or the 325/50/15. I want to run the 325 but i have a 15x10 with 6"backspacing so im not sure if they will stick past the fenders

 

Imagine this, but with the tire 1/2" farther out since this is a 325 with 15x10 6.5" BS.

 

What made you put that on the stock wheel??? LOL

 

Never put the 325's on stockers, and I'm sure that wouldn't pan out too well.

 

15x9 w/ 5.5bs

True 28x10.5

 

the 6" back spacing wheels are hard to find. American racing pro series are hard to find. they no longer offer them. I was going to buy a spare set but cant find them.

 

you will need a BFH, big friggin hammer and that will do it.

 

Hoosier DOT drag radials (P255/50R16) on '88 front iroc wheels and for the front I got 20 year old 14x4 American racing multi-hole wheels with some cheap indy skinnies

FYI its looks like crap but it works so i don't care!!!!!!

anybody ever fit a 15" pro star over '99 SS rear brakes?

 

It can be done with a sustanial amount of grinding to the caliper.

 

Yea, i can post some pics if you like of what they look like before and after grinding.

 

most helpful

im getting the 28x12.5 et street same size as this one

 

well ive decided to go with the 275/60 M/T Drag Radial.

So my brand new 28x10.5W are for sale. Never been mounted.

Ill post a pic with the radials once i get them

 

Thanks guys, I wondered if I would have to grind or not. Never had a wheel to see.

If you could post those pics or just IM them to me, I would appreciate it.

 

No real good pics, but 28x10.5's on a 15x8 pro star, 15x3.5 in the front. BTW Fast Ls1: Is that your Bee that you're towing with? Any mods?

 

15 x 8 Greg welds, 26 x 10" ET streets, will be using 28's again after these wear out. Thirdgen offset rear in car, 5" BS.
