I assume you mean out back? There are a few guys running 28x9" slicks out back with coilovers and 15x8" rims with 5.5" backspacing.... you can run a 275 out back with the proper offset (15x8 with 5.5" backspacing)

I've run stock T2 rims with Nitto Drag Radial 245/50/16's and achieved 1.71 60ft times and gone mid 11's@114mph.

you should check out the V8RX7 forum at TorqueCentral.com as there is more info on it. Do a search first.
