Debating a switch from 17x9 TT2s to a 15" Drag Setup
Hey guys i have a polo green 94 Trans Am WS6 clone that currently has 17x9 Polished TT2s and have pondering the idea of switching it up as ive had the TT2s for a couple years now and everybody is running them whenever i go to cruise nights. The car is not a DD and is a weekend cruiser and straightline i do not roadcourse or any of that. I have had my eyes on the BS Street Lite 15x4x2.25bs and 15x10x7.5bs. I know when going to a 4" skinny you cannot turn at high speeds and it will just plow. My question is the handling and braking that bad when going to a skinny up front? Also when adding skinnys to the front with stock front suspension will the front end look like 4x4 and most usually cut springs or get a set lower fronts? I love my TT2s and dont want to get rid of them if i hate the drag look and kick myself later if you know what i mean.

I've had skinnies on a street car before and I'm not a big fan of it. I personally wouldn't put anything on the front more narrow than about 6". It just feels unstable and braking performance suffers significantly when compared to a larger wider wheel. If I were you, I'd look into the 17" streetlite with a 17x7 front and 17x11 rear - best of both worlds.
