which size rims and tires??? hi. im new here and i have a 94 z28 camaro. im going for the old school drag look. i want the summit fast fives for it ( pro star knock offs) but not sure on the front rim and tire size for streetability.
im gonna run 15x8 with a 275x?x15 tire not sure if i want a 60 or 50
then the front i was think a 15x4 or 15x7 with a skinny but drivable tire.
its my DD and i use the freeway. so my question is
should i run a 4in or 7in front rim and which tire to match it with?
and should i run a 50 or 60 size rear tire?
thanks alot.

since its a street car and needs to go around corners, and keeping a similar diameter as stock (245/50x16 = 25.65")
i'd use a 15x7 up front, with a 205/65 or a 225/60 (25.5")
and a 15x8 or 8.5 with a 275/50 (25.8")

Im pretty sure the summit 15x7 will not fit over any front calipers. My 3 1/2" draglites took grinding I can only imagine what you would have to do to run a 7" rim on the front
