draglites

coreyflipp · October 2nd, 2007, 09:49 PM

I'm planning on buying new draglites for my car and going with 15x9 and heard to go with 6" backspacing. Problem is I'm having a hard time finding 6 backspacing. I've found 5.5 will this clear everything. And i was planning on running just a 235/60/15 or should i go with 275/50/15. On the front something like 15x7 what backspacing should i get for it?

Speedstang302 · October 2nd, 2007, 10:02 PM

with the 9's in the rear do 255/60/15

93'_GT · October 2nd, 2007, 10:48 PM

15x10s 6.5 BS rear 275/50 15s
15x6 up front 3.5 BS 205/55 15

I want 15x9's out back i think 15x10s may be a little too much. I've heard they are hard to get to fit. I can't find 15x9 with a 6" backspace.

I think mine are 15x9 but they might be 15x8. They have a 7" backspacing with Micky Thomson ET Street slicks 26x10.5x15 and they fit GREAT and really hook up too!

93'_GT · October 3rd, 2007, 03:13 PM

I had air shocks but got rid of them bcause they SUCKED at the track.

whiteboycustom · October 3rd, 2007, 05:59 PM

that is stock suspension, hell im afraid to know how old the shocks are haha, i have some lakewood traction action bars layin here in my office at work and once i order the upper control arms ill put those on which(if i am correct)should lower the rear a 1" or so

a local guy has some 90/10 lakewood frontend and his sits way high and im not sure why but it needs some lowering to sit right, maybe someone has some input
