you need to bang it out everywhere the tire touches or COULD touch going over bumps.

It's not an exact science, more of a learn-as-you-go kind of thing as all cars are different. With 325s you're going to need to roll the lips too as it's going to rub, bad, if you don't.

Here is my car on 325/50/15 BFG's

Not a *****, just don't feel like taking a BFH to my car at this point, maybe at some point when it becomes a necessity I'll do it but for now I would rather step down a size and see how that works out.

It litterally takes 6 seconds. I've seen me do it.

BFH: If you are on the driver's side and looking at the wheel well, you may need to BFH up at 10 oclock and 2 oclock on the passenger side.

You may need to do some work around the lower control arm mount.

You may need to hammer in the front metal a lip a bit but be careful you can warp it.

You might need to roll your fenders.

You might need to cut or tie back the rear plastics, bumper.

All of the above depend on how wide the tire, the rim, and which brand rim you run.

It would be the 15 x 10 Billet Specialties F body specific street lites, and ideally would have been a 325/50 Mickey Thompson Drag Radial, but I would prefer to just run a smaller tire vs beating on my car....just a preference of mine...

I'll be trying this sometime this year. Already have the 325-50-15 MT's in the garage, just need new rims.

325 or 275?
i still have the 10 bolt rear end w/373's

325's
I've got a Strange 12 Bolt, narrowed 1 inch each side. I was thinking about Billet Specialties Street Lites. Heard the regular 15x10's don't fit too easily. Can't get the F-Body specifics because I need a 6.5 backspace.

FYI, if you're narrowed 1" on each side and wish to use a 15x10 wheel, the proper backspacing is 6.5

would it affect my 60ft time?
would the rearend hold?

I shouldn't rush while typing. I knew it was 6.5, good thing someone caught it! I'll go back and edit....

You can get good enough times with 275's.

My stock rear lasted over 2 years after I put on the nitrous. The transmission broke before the rear. Start saving for both if you intend on using nitrous, etc.

No nitrous in the near future,i am trying to get the best out of it with only bolt on mods and good tunning,i just got a set of Billet speciality15x10 for the rear and 15x4 for the front to save weight from the previous set that i used for the drag tires (275/17s)
In the hope to pick up a tenth!!!!!

So the real question is about this debate is how well does this tire hook on the street???

z71likearockman

z71likearockman
