Pictures of Hoosier QTP 27-11.50x15's on my lowered SS Check it out...

They fit really nice on my lowered car.
They will allow for 130+ mph at 6600 rpm with 4.11 gears in a 6-speed car. It's a good compromise for those of us who want to keep the 4.11 punch and still not be maxed ot on N20. Now if they'll only offer this size in a full slick.....

Re: Pictures of Hoosier QTP 27-11.50x15's on my lowered SS Looking good. I am going to be spraying my car and we have very similar setups so let me know how they work out @ the track on motor and on spray. Also, did you have to modify the fender wells? My car is lowered also.

Re: Pictures of Hoosier QTP 27-11.50x15's on my lowered SS I have the same setup and my car is lowered in the back...I run 15x10 prostars, I had some major issues w/the tire hitting the bump stops, so I had to make them dissappear....I run extended studs, the same ones Scott runs....I run a spacer now, and get no rubbing anywhere...

Re: Pictures of Hoosier QTP 27-11.50x15's on my lowered SS Jsears8:
I rolled about 18" of the fenderwell, but that may not have been necessary. Even if you do need to do it, it's almost unnoticeable.
Tony:
No roll cage....No HRP. I know I REALLY need to get a cage in this thing before I kill myself. I was running last week at a little airstrip (full 1/4 mile passes), and I was lowering tire pressures way down in an attempt to get traction (11 psi)....car got squirelly a couple of times on me on the big end. Kinda puckered me up a little.
And yeah...27" x 10" slicks would be nice!
BIGBOS
I run a 5/16" spacer, 15x10's with 7.5" backspacing.....really nice fit. Not even close to rubbing anywhere.
Can't wait for some nice weather to see if I can knock off a 10sec run (on spray), swap rear tires, and drive 100 miles home! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> (If I can't pull it off it'll be the driver's fault)
