here is my story:
I live 1+ hrs away from the tracks, I wanted to run a DR so I can drive there without swapping tires, and this is my 'tow' rig so towing it to the track is not going to happen.
But I can get my hands on some 28" ET Drags that would work for sure and I have 2 sets of rims, 15x10 rallys and T'stars with also 10" wide. so I got the rims, just have to decide what tire to get.
Guess if I did change tires I could put the extra set in the bed for some weight to help traction

Re: widest tire on 15x10

I might have to agree some of the other posts in that other thread you put up. I'm not really seeing the huge problem with the tires you have on it. Rake looks nice to me. The hole prostreet look is that you somehow got way too big of a tire under any vehicle. There are some guys on here that have some ridiculous raked/stances and that's just the way it is. I can't remember what width you are running now but a 15.5 SHOULD be on a min of a 12" wheel.

Re: widest tire on 15x10

its not that I don't like the look I just don't love it??? l'm going for that low even look the more of the rear tires I can Hide the better (31x15.5) also I have to go pick up a set of 2" drops/disc for the front that I got a deal on so I can stop this thing.... once the Caddy is in it ( and the new NOS system) I want a import to roll up then slam it flip on the bottle and drag the hitch while the left front shock is strecthed like a piano string...

I just want to do a couple things 1) show you can teach an old dog new tricks 2) oLe School Rules 3) theres no substition for cubic inchs.....
