Lets see those Hoosiers QTP's. Okay, here is my setup:
15X10, 7.5 BS, Weld Draglites. (Current tire 26 X 10 ET DRG)
I would like to run a Hoosier QTP 28 X 13.5
Is this too big, or should I stick with a 27 X 11.5 or maybe a 28 X 11.5???
Please jump in here guys. I am not afraid to do some 15# sledge massaging to the fender wells. Post a pic if you got one too. No more drag slicks....the cops are wise to me!!

Those are 28x10.5x15 Hoosier slicks would equate to 28x12.5x15 ET STreets.
-15x10's
-7.5 backspace
-no spacers in back
-minor cutting to rear bumper
-deburred front
-minor BFH clearancing in wheel wheel up front where the tires can rub.

Re: Lets see those Hoosiers QTP's. I've got some pics of 28x13.50 QTP's on 7.5" backspaced prostars. No great pics, but you can get an idea anyway.... I was able to accomplish fitment with a 12# sledge

Re: Lets see those Hoosiers QTP's. Thanks guys. I was really worried about getting the 28 X 13.5's on. It looks like a good combination of careful planning, and extreme violence should get them too fit.

Re: Lets see those Hoosiers QTP's. Well, in my infinite ability to flip flop, I just ordered a set of 28 X 10.5 Hoosier Slicks. They have a 10.3 tread compared to the MT ET Drags with 10.0
I just dont want to give up the bite of slicks, especially with the new tranny combo.
