What size ET Drags or ET Streets will fit on WS6 Wheel? Need some sticky tires that will fit my WS6 wheel.
1) Whats available?

Want to launch on spray and cut great 60ft times.

with that power get at least some 17x11's in the rear and put on 26x11.5x17 ET Streets.As far as the 17x9 stock you have to stick with the 275's but I don't believe the Streets come that small.

thanks for the response.
I remember reading somewhere that you can go X amount of Inches over stock rim size but cant remember exactly. Can someone help me with that?
I have seen people running Nitto DRs (cant remember if its 305 or 315s) on the stock WS6 rim. It did bulge out a bit (barely noticeable if you stare closely - it was nothing crazy or dangerous).
There must be someone that tried using sticky tires on WS6 wheels.
Help! I cant launch on spray with nitto drag radials and I dont want to purchase new wheels. I intend on making just a few passes and selling the tires later.

You'll only find MT DR's in 275/40/17 and they fig a 9" rim. The ET Streets come in 26x11.50 -17LT's but need to be on an 11" rim. I have 255/50/16 MT DR's on some 16x8 ZR1 wheels and they stick great. The Nittos are the least sticky of the DR's out there. You'll hook better if you drop to 16 or 15" wheels. You'll get more sidewall give and it'll give you a better launch.
