Hoosier 225/50/15 too tall for setup??
I am wanting to get the new Hoosier DOT Drag Radial 225/50/15 tyre to run on my car...
I have a 140wkw (180whp) and run a close ratio 98 spec type R box with the 4.7 final drive...
Are these tyres going to be too tall for my setup???
they are approz 23.7 inches
I would use the M&H 13" version but I use the car for curcuit racing and don't wanna be swapping brakes across all the time.
I realise there are a few variable but some good advice would be much appreciated...
I can only rev the car to 8500

I haven't raced since the new gearbox etc so not sure on this setup....would estimate I am crossing the line at around 7000rpm in 4th running a 205/50/15
that is before the tune and cams etc - would expect to me at 7500 if I had the same whee;/tyre setup

I have this final drive. With 185/60/14 inch tires, i end the quarter mile in 4th gear at about 6500 rpms if i remember right. All i have is basic bolt ons on a gsr motor with type r tranny reving to 8k. I was thinking about going with 205s but i am about to be pusing 300hp turbo so i think 225s are what i need with short little FD.

I can get you the BFG Drag radials in 205/50/15 if your interested or I have a dealer in Sydney if your interested.
*Edit I dont know my geography. I thought Auckland was in Australia
