Default 28 inch slicks.....

ok so the time has come for 28's because the 26's aren't cutting it anymore...


my set up right now for the rear is stock springs and hal shocks and an adj. PHR

I also have BMR tubular LCA's (non adj.)


I am also gonna be getting some convo pros for the back to match my front skinnies so I would need to know what width and offset.

umm so basically what is needed to fit 28's?

What offset and width for the convo pros?

and lastly what width for the 28 inch slicks?

thanks

Centerline 15X7.5 Convo Pro with 5" Backspace Part #005755547 and Mickey Thompson 28X9X15 Part #3054. That combination fits without any kind of modifications needed. Those tires are only 27.3" actual diameter, but if you start spinning them fast enough, i'm sure they will expand a half inch or so. A true 28" tire will rub on the rear fender wells.

Hope that helps a bit.
