Looking for pictures of 325/50/15 MT DRAG RADIALS I'm looking for pictures of 325/50/15 MT drag radails mounted on a camaro or firebird. I did a search but could only find a couple pictures. I'm currently running a 15x10 weld rim with a 275/50/15 mt drag radial. Looking for a bigger/wider tire to run. Hammering the inner fender wheel wells - is this all that it takes to fit this size of tire - Mike

Most will have to mod/clearance the front of the inner wheel well and having an adj PHB is nice, too to be able to center the rear under the car...Adj LCAs are nice also to center the tire in the wheel well...I just took the easy way out and went with 275 60 R15 M/T radials..They fit without any mods..Same height as the 325s, but a bit narrower...

I can't view pics here at work
Back on topic:
If you are worried about fitment you could look at M&H Radials (That's what is on mine) M&H section width is the same as a nitto 315 @ 12.3 the MT section width is 13.00
Mine with narrowed rearend and 325 M&H

That's my car the GTGriller posted pics of. They are 325/50/15s on 15x10 prostars with 7.5 backspacing, should be the same wheel you have. I beat on the inside of the fenders fairly well, but nothing too major. The biggest work was grinding the calipers but you are already past that stage. You will likely need one of two things: 1) adjustable panhard rod or 2) air bags in the rear to stiffen it up a little if the rearend isn't centered. Mine is off a little to one side so when I turned to the right it would rub, so I went with air bags. They were a great idea anyways because I put more pressure in the passenger side to level it out when it squats at the track, for $60-70 new it's hard to beat.

inside wheel well, I wouldn't see it rubbing on the 1/4 panel lip unless the car was lowered. It only did it on the side that is set in a little, you can tell in the pics that the rearend is ~slightly~ to the left. It's about a 1/2" difference between each side. If I cared enough to pay for an adjustable PHB myself, I would recommend getting one to other people. It's only an issue because it's a 28" tall tire and the nature of how a PHB works shifts the rearend when it's lifted 2 inches over stock tire height
