Looks great man, that offset looks freakin mean with that narrowed rear.
hahaha! that's my buddy jt76 in here. my engine isn't in (raising the car) and i was dying to see what the rear looked like the wheels tucked

sorry everyone, i haven't been on in a while. to answer everyone's questions (i hope), this is the setup:

-M9 rear, narrowed 3" per side
-billet specialties street lights
-5.5" BS, 15x10. this backspace will bring the wheels in 1" per side
-i can't remember what i have in the front, i think its 15x3.5 or 4
-tires are 325/50/15 mickeys
-the car is minitubbed. w/o the tuck, minitub is not necessary, just a BFH. with the tuck, minitub is necessary
-offset LCA's

i hope that answers everyone's questions, and i appreciate the compliments

The term "street drag" has never made sense to me.. You've got a drag setup, and you've got a street setup...

I don't have a drag setup, so any racing I do is stop light to stop light = street drag (race). I was just kidding with my post. Mainly wanted to comment on the electron blue camaro that owns this thread.

Drag racing setups are strictly for the drag strip, i.e. big and littles:



Street drag would be setup for street driving AND racing, street setups are just cruising. My street drag setup would be this:



The difference? Mainly the street 'drag' setup looks better and isn't with 15" wheels. Diameter wise I ran the exact same tire size as I did at the track, 28" DR in the rear, 26" radial up front. The only difference is the front tires were wider on a bigger wheel. A street setup for me may have been 19" CCW's on a street tire.

I don't have the rears yet because I'm still debating between completing the set of Draglites or switching to Prostars.

Anyone DD 15x3 or 4 and 15x8 or 15x10s?
if so hows the handling?
I wanna do a 15x3.5 or 4 and 15x10 or 11 but a few of my friends tell me handling will suck concerning taking fast corners or something like that.

I DD 15 x 3.5" Weld Prostars on my last car. I have a short drive to work (< 4 miles), and hated it. I love the 17x7 BS SL's though, perfect for a DD.

I run on 15X3.5 GW's and 15X10 prostars and I don't have any issues. Although I don't ever take any fast corners... ever. Most of these front runner wheels are just barely safe enough to baby around the streets, definately not meant to take any hard turns over 15-20mph.
