DR's sidewall??
 

Ok I'm needing to just go on and buy some DR's just a quick question.

Should I find a 15" wheel of just use my 17" Wheels?

Should I use a smaller wheel diameter so I will have a larger sidewall?

If I went with a 15 it would be a 15X11 insted of my 17X 9.5 to that would be better just because I would have more surface area..


I read the sticky and got this but I don't think it really helps me...

Question: What is the advantage to running a stiff sidewall tire? If there is no stiff sidewall slick in my size what can I do to stiffen the sidewall of my slick?

Answer: The advantage of a stiff sidewall is less tire wrap or sidewall distortion, thus reacting better at launch. Note: This is good for heavy cars, or cars with a suspension, that can absorb the initial launch. If you are running a fixed suspension car like a dragster or an altered, you would need the tire to absorb the launch, thus a softer sidewall. There are two ways to stiffen the sidewall. 1. Run tubes to help support the sidewall. 2. Matching the tread width with the wheel width, or going 1 wider on the wheel width, will stiffen the sidewall

Get 15x10 Draglites with 7.5" backspace, and 275/50 (26") or 275/60 (28") M/T DR's.

are 28 the biggest you can fit in there?

how tall is a 325/50/15?

325/50/15 is like 27.9" tall I believe. It's what I run on my car.

I have a set but they were only a half inch away from hitting the rear bumper and the front of the wheelwell.

Radial tires don't grow like a slick so I'm not worried about it. It's very tight on my setup on the inner wheelwell.

ok I was just checking.

Yah deffinaley get yourself some 15x10's for that size tire. By the way 28's look amazing on F-bodys.
