HELP! what slicks and drag wheels?
i know nothing about them :wall:
ok im gonna run a 15" wheel (have to grind i know)
the car is lowered
i assume i can only run a 26" tall tire. (true?)
what slicks do yall recomend?
i was looking at et streets
on jegs i see...
26'' x 10.5'' - 15''LT
and
26'' x 11.5'' - 15''LT
can i fit the 11.5 on a lowered car?
what size wheels? what offset?
what drag wheels are the lightest or most popular?
also
what about the fronts i want to run skinnys on drags, maybe a 3 or 4" rim? what offset? will i need spacers? what size tire?
any and all advice would be greatly appreciated......

with 26's at 6,800 you would cross the traps at 128mph
with 28's at 6,800 you would cross the traps at 138mph
Hell when i was a heavy (3,555 lbs) cam only M6 with a wet 150 i was crossing the traps at 128 i think.
BUT you might just be running 1/8 mile so i don't know.

With 26's your going to run out of gear.

all the cars at FASTECH with 28" slicks had there rear bumpers cut, im not willing to do that.....
what backspacing with a 28? 6.5 or 7.5?
i run 1/4 mile. what do you mean ill run out of gear? u mean ill have to shift to 5th?

I would go with a M/T ET Street Radial also..... 275/60/15 is a 28" tall tire..... but the whole lowering this messes you up....... i gave up on that..... went back to filling the wheel well with the tire instead of lowering the car to meet the tire.........................
