4th gen moser....what size drag radial???

Hey I just swapped a moser 12 bolt from a 4th gen. When i go to the strip next year I dont feel like recking my tires and quarters.

So Im gonna need a 4th gen rim/tire combo.

I was thinking of the jeg star 15x10s with possibly a 315 m/t street radial. will this work? or will it rub.

My other route that im thinking is 16 inch 4th gen rims with the stock 255/50/16 M/T street radials.

What would be my best/cheapest route?

Stock spacing is 4.5 on a 4th gen wheel if im correct right? I am actually considering swapping all corners to 4th gen 16s (5 spoke firebird wheels)

Jay

you going to need somewhere around 7.5 backspace & 295 would fit easily...315 would probably work since it does not grow but I`m only guessing
