Default Slicks on a 5th gen.

From what i understand ppl running 8 inch wheels are not rubbing in the front. I finally found some drag wheel however they are 9 inch ! And they come with some big *** tires. I doubt they will fit with those tires but could I fit a 9 inch wheel underthere ?

15x9 Welds w/28" M/T tires on them

Reguardless of this thread being useless with out the offset, those wheels and tires are far to big for you unless your making 1000 whp.

24.5 is a bit big for a mild street motor....

i'm running 15x7 kosei k1 as my drag wheels and 22x8 MT ET drags.
