Default 09 CTS-V drag radial??
Since there is not a 19" drag radial out yet I was wondering if anyone knew if a 18" or possibly 17" wheel will clear in the rear?

15" rotors right? I doubt anything under 19" will fit. I have no actual evidence though.

I'm hoping the tire companies will start to make a 19" drag radial too. Maybe since the new 10 mustang will have optional 19" wheels, the tire companies will get on board.

Yes 15'' rotors in the front, not sure about the rear

Nitto Invo's are pretty good street tires too and come in 19" sizes. They are pretty sticky.
