Re: Can I fit this BIG drag radial under my car? I think it would fit without too much trouble depending on what wheels you're running. I ran a set of 325/50/15's on 15x10 prostars (7.5"bs) and it took alot of beating. I ran the same tires on a set of 15x8" prostars (5.5"bs) and they didn't require too much massaging... Right now I'm running 315/60/15's and it was major surgery.. don't even go there.

Re: Can I fit this BIG drag radial under my car? I'm running 295/50-15 Pep Boys Futuras on my '98. Click here for pics. They're a 26.5" tire.
No fitment problems at all. I only tweaked my wheel wells
to fit the 28" ET Drags (and adjusted rear end with adj PHR and adj LCA's).

Re: Can I fit this BIG drag radial under my car? I'm gonna try the 325/50/15,That will look badass under the car.I figure I can grind the caliper some more until I dont need the spacer.That'll tuck it up under the car real nice.
Thanks guys...

Re: Can I fit this BIG drag radial under my car? Who makes the 335 drag radial?
I have done tons of grinding and the bump stop is also completely grinded off on both sides...
I'm just trying to figure out what size tire I'm going to run when I order my Fiskes this fall..

Re: Can I fit this BIG drag radial under my car? I dont think u can get a 345/50 under our cars but who knows..The 295/50 or the 325/50 will go under for sure.Anything bigger will be alot of work.
I decided on the 325 since its 27.6 height is close to my et drags 26.3 height.Thats only about an inch different in hieght.It wont effect my trap rpm too bad..

Re: Can I fit this BIG drag radial under my car? Well thats debatable.
I looked at it closely and realized u need a 9in rim to mount a 325 correctly.I guess u could put the 325 on a 8in rim but your gonna lose an inch of tire contact since the rim will pull the tire in more on a 8in rim.
I think i'm gonna go to a 295/50,the only bad part with that is no one makes a DR in that size..
