Default Couple Questions about ET Streets

I am interested in getting a set of draglites or some other drag rim and ET streets. Not sure about:
1. What size rim and tire combo should I get?
2. What do I need to do to make them fit?
3. Where do I go to get them?
4. How Much?

Any input would be great.

With my stock gers in an A4 I use 15x10 Weld drag lites with a 7.5 inch Back spacing with a 5/16 inch spacer installed. I think that is the standard drag set up as far as wheels go and I also use 26x11.5-15 ET streets if you must have a dot tire. That's a good Street/strip combo , but if you are running brackets you really should consider Drag slicks. I had EVERYONE tell me that and if you look in the classifieds you'll see an ad for an almost new set of ET streets for sale that are being replaced by ET Drags. I know I know Tony, Trevor and Raughhammer, I should have listened.(kicking my butt as we speak).lol. I sure hope this helps.

PS- I did pull some 1.57 60 fts with the ST3500 and I got several "wheels off the ground pics" while running the ET streets, but the track prep better be good if you are launching hard. My .02.
