Now that I know these tires fit on the 5.5 inch backspacing Prostars, I will be getting a set of the Magnum Drag 2.0's for the back of my car (to match my front wheels), but with a polished center and not the gold center. I will use those for strip and keep the prostars for little street blasts and such

Can you post here or in your link to the others some pictures of the minitubs from up underneath and your interior after the trim is reinstalled? I have a red 01 Formula, and knowing I have to upgrade from my 6-point since I'm in the 9's, I am trying to decide what to do in addition such as mini-tub or just clearance for some 30x9 radials. Thanks.

Any tips on centering the rear front/back other than move in small increments and adjust them both the same? I'll be getting my adj. LCA's in the mail next week and they're my first real piece of adj. suspension (not counting my adj. TA)

what i do is establish the cars centerline from front to back then get a perpendicular line off the centerline and use that to center the rear in the car. measure back from the perpendicular line to something like the shock mounts on the rear and when both are eq. the rear is square. then you can adjust both control arms for and aft eq. amounts both sides to get the rear centered in the wheel wells

Any idea on what that tire measures (section width) on a 10" rim?
Did you do any trimming of the metal in the front of the tire? Looks very close. My 28" ET street is that close in the front.

I am not 100% sure on the section width. I forgot to measure that before I put the tires on.
As for trimming on the metal in front, yes there was some minor metal trimming, but not as much as you would think. When the guys from NRC built the car a few years ago, they did some very minor trimming, and then I did a little when I put the tires on.
