lets hear about your 15" wheel and tire drag fc setups. Post specs on

1. rim brand
2. rim width
3. rim backspacing
4. tire brand
5. tire width
6. tire diameter
7. fender modifications required?
8. Is your car lowered?
9. Other details: any rubbing, performance (60 foot times), how did the combo work for you?

 

Yeah...probably not a lot responses will happen from this section..

 

best choice for drag only would be a set of Weld wheels. Either pro stars or drag lites. 15x8 in the rear, and 15x3.5 in the front (skinnies)

Should be the same backspacing as the fox body mustang if i remember right. So but a set off a ford guy and they should fit.

26" tall is the biggest you can go in the front. And i cant remember the rear. But i had a 285 MTstreet that fit in the rear with 1" drop in the rear. Minor flaring is needed though.

 

also, if you run skinnies up front and have the bigger caliper brakes like TII or similar. You will need to space them out and get longer wheel studs. Or use an adapter to space them out. I think 10mm will do it. They should clear smaller 4 lug style brakes though.

 

Front
Weld Draglite 15x3 1/2 4 lug setup with custom spacer with 4 piston FD calipers(got the spacer from Aaron Cake)adjustable control arms,camber plates and outer tie rod ends(build by VOLKY CHASSIS from PR)

Rear
Weld Draglite 15x10,Turbo 2 rear end on 4 lug hubs with stock calipers

Working on a new set of custom coilovers.
As soon as the car gets finished i will post some pics.

 

For those 285's to fit did you just have to roll the inner fender lip or did you have to flare ther outermost part of the fender. Do you have pics?
