Draglites
Draglites I've decided on 15x10's in the rear with 7.5" bs. 15x4 up front. What bs do I need up front? And what size tires for the fronts and the rears?
I'm thinking 28x10.5-15 tires in the rear, no idea on the fronts though....

I've got 15x4 Draglites with 2.25 backspacing and a 26x7.5x15 MT Sportsmans.
The 28x10.5x15 will be good on the 15x10s

The 2.25 backspacing is excessive for the front, with that you have to use a spacer and do a lil grinding. I just tried to put a set of the Billet Specialties Streetlites on my car with the 2.25 backspacing and I had to grind the **** out of the calipers and it still didn't fit. I sold them to a friend of mine who wanted them and I just ordered the same kind with the 1.625 backspacing and I was told there is way less grinding or you can use a 1/4 spacer and don't grind at all.
Will they be on the car all the time? Or just for the dragstrip?
I just picked up a pair of 15 X 3.5 Draglites for the front and put Moroso Drag Special tires on them, 26 X 4.5. Those tires are light, about 10 lbs each. But I wouldn't even think about driving on the street with them. Streetable skinnies will be considerably heavier, 16-19 lbs each.

Some limited street time, but mostly track use. When I say limited I mean to and from the strip and just cruising once in a blue moon. I have street rims and tires for regular street driving.
