I currently have 15x10 rear rims on my rx-7, and was using a nitto 555R drag radial (275/50) and they have worn out. But as before, I cant seem to find a nice street/road race tire in a lower proflie! It seems 15x10 is doomed to muscle car tires with HUGE sidewalls. I dont do any drag racing, so these tires suck!
If anyone can help me find a lower profile tire for these rims let me know. I'm using V700 (225/50) in the front and they are a perfect profile for me. But the front rims are 15x8, which has many tires availble. Oh yeah the tire for the rear must be a treaded R-compound, so hoosiers would not be too streetable.

(see sig. for my setup, and give any sugestions on what front rear tire combo will be better)

Thanks!

 

Side question: your car white?

here are 3 different tires from tirerack

No, its flat black at the moment....changing soon to something of a real color, ahaha

 

Yeah, you're pretty much stuck with at least a 16" wheel for tires in the 255-295 width range.

You can get some killer drag slicks for 15x10s though

Good luck!

If you switch to 16 inch wheels, I might be interested in your 15 x 10s. I can use them in F Prepared and am looking for a set, particularly if they are lightweight. PM me if interested.
