I plan on buying some pro stars or drag lites this week and was wondering which size drag radials some of you guys are using. I am putting a 4:11 gear in also. If anybody has some pics of there cars with those rim I would like to see them.
thanks

A 275/60-15 rubs because it is a 28" diameter tire. I supect the fender sat down on the tire when the body squatted on launch. That's why the air bag helped. You need some short gears to run 28" tires.... not sure if they will be the best selection for key3... maybe OK with the 4.11's???? The 275/50-15 is the same as the stock tire diameter.

Go with the 275/50/15s unless you're running some sort of power adder.
