I need some opinions or experience comments about this. Right now i am running 185/60/14 tires on del sol wheels. I want to buy some rotas that have 225/50/15 BFG drag radials on them. My car is pretty slammed (pictures below), i don't know the drop, i bought the car at the height it is now and never messed with it. Do ya'll think i can fit these 225/50/15 DRs? I am more worried about drag racing, so if i rub a little when i turn it is not a big deal. How do ya'll think they will work out?





Sorry for the dark pics. I appreciate any help. Thanks.

And yes, i know i need a paint job.

 

they will fit but it needs to be raised...i had 205x50 & 225x50 BFG's on my hatchhhhh

 

how high? How low were you and how would you compare the two? was there a noticeable difference between the 2 sizes?

well with eh 205's i was at 181whp the 205's are 22"
with teh 225's it was nice but never got to track them with those i was a fully built 2.0L over 200whp teh 225's are 23.9"

 

Are you only putting the 225s on the front? Or front and rear?

I figured that, but then he had a pic of his back wheels as well???

If you are only doing the fronts and aren't concerned about the scrubbing on a full turn, I would just recommend raising the front end up, removing the inner lining (if any) and ride em'.

 

yeah idk why i put a picture of the rear, but yeah only the front. My lining is already out too.
