i am buying rims and tires this week. I am either going with the weld draglite or bogarts 15x10
I wanted to know if any one is running a 325 50 15 on their car and if it fits. Pics would be great

The Section with is 13, diamitor is 28".
Thanks

 

the width should fit with the right backspace/offset. I run 335/35/17's with no problems. Granted i did need the BFH to make things fit

I need to get a better pictre of that as$

 

what backspacing should i go with
15x10 with a 6.5" or 7.5" backspace.
or would you recomend a 15x9 with a 5.5" backspace.
Thanks for the help guys

 

If you buy a 15x10, you need a 7.5" backspace. The Bogarts that are made specifically for the 4th Gen are 9.5" wide, and if they know its for a 4th Gen, they will give you the correct backspacing. George Baxter has them on his 8-second 30th SS convertible. Welds require griding the brake calipers. Bogarts do not - if they are the 4th Gen wheels.

I ran 28" QTP's and they were exactly 28.0" diameter, and no problem up to 120mph trap speeds. Over that, they grew enough to start hitting the front metal edge of the wheel opening. I had to move the axle back about 1/4" to prevent the rubbing. With 28" ET Drags, I couldn't even bolt the wheel on the car without cutting off the leading edge off the rubber bumper cover.

You are also going to need much steeper gears in the back to compensate for the 9% diameter increase over stock.
