275/50/15 drag radials, will they fit 15" slipstreams or is it too wide?
i'm thinking bout getting some drag radials from mickey thompson, and was just wondering if p275/50/15 would even fit my slipstreams? I want to run em on my 92 Hatch. If they do fit, would there be any rubbing issues?

You'll have to check with Mickey Thompson. Unlike most tire manufacturers, their website doesn't show what the range of approved rim widths is.
And you didn't say how wide your Slips are, which anybody would have to know in order to answer your question.

Oh yes. Big time.
I suggest you consider getting the Dunlop SP Sport Inferno in 205/50-15. See this previous topic for more information.

good choice man, just got my bfgoodriches on today, same size u got on phat five wheels on my DA with 260whp and 215wtq, ****** sweeeeet is all i have to say. This is somethin i shoulda done as soon as i went turbo, first and second used to not do much, now first spins but grabs alot to and launches the car real nice, 2nd no long spins and just barely grips but biiig difference, wouldnt be surprised if i just knocked a complete sec. off my quarter mile times. seems crazy but trust me, u'll see when u get them, goodluck and hopefully u'll be as siked on them as i am, cant wait to cruise around tonight. peace
