Eagle wheel & M/T ET Street question Just wondering if this combo will fit, i am not good with the numbers here hehe:
15 in. x 10 in., 5 x 5 in., and 5 x 5 1/2 in. dual-drilled bolt circle, 3 11/16 in. backspacing
on....
26 in. x 10.5 in. x 15 in., M5 compound, D.O.T. ET Drag Tire
Also, does anyone know of any issues with eagle wheels and fitment with the firebirds? I just want to make sure i don't need to grind or if i do need spacers. Thanks.

Re: Eagle wheel & M/T ET Street question Stock 16x8 rims are 5.5 backspace.
Now add 2 inches to the outer part.
15x10/5.5 will stick out like old mag wheels on a hilljack Dodge Charger. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Eagle wheel & M/T ET Street question Would you happen to know the offset i need for bogarts? I want to put M/T ET streets 26x10.5x15 on bogarts but i need to know the offset typically.
Re: Eagle wheel & M/T ET Street question 26x10.5x15 M/T ET Streets = 15x8 rims
26x11.5x15 M/T ET Streets = 15x10 rims
So you need like a 15x8 rim, maybe a 15x9 rim will work....
15x8/5.5 backspace= need to grind calipers some
15x8/5"=little or no griding but the tire is flush with the fender lip
15x8/4.5 offset=sticks out like a hilljack car
26x11.5x15 M/T ET Streets = 15x10 rims

Re: Eagle wheel & M/T ET Street question Hey thanks for the reply john. I have yet another question. I have a moser 12 bolt and KVR slotted rotors on the rear and baer eradispeeds up front, i haven't tested it with a 15'' rim yet but will there be clearance issues? Regarding your response i would probably want to go with 5'' backspace? I keep switching around what i want but now i am more focused on convo pros because they seem to be less expensive and i read that there are no issues with grinding etc. Know anything about convos? Thanks again!
