Default 325/50s on 10s or 12s

Any benefits of running the 325s on 10s vs 12s?

on my car, teh 10s will bulge the sidewalls of the 325 radials. IMO it needs more than a 10" wide wheel. definately more contact patch. click on the link in my sig and you will see

More contact patch, pulls the tire out so you can run more air.

It looks like wolfe racecraft car runs 15x12's you can see it on their site.

If you're going to get rims I would run the 15x12 vs. the 15x10.

I think you need to pull the rear end and narrow it now that you have all that room and run a 15x12 with a deep dish like a 3" or 4"

Hey it's only money right

Well, Weld can make a 15 x 12 with a 8"BS so it would fit without any modifications. New rims wouldn't be much of a hassle, I'd have to cut the ends off and cut some off the axles also.
