I'm going to be porting my blower and all the other stuff to go along with it and when i launch i dont want to have any worse than a 1.9 60'...So! What tires and wheels are you using outback, let me know what i need to do so i can clear my irs!
What tire and wheel are you using? (IRS/DRAG LAUNCH)

I have 18x10 GTR Rims with 305/35/18 Nitto 555R II's. No rubbing at all. These tires are the road race ones, and they hook very well. Not in cold weather though!
Im subscribing to see if there are any cheap rims (stock 16in rims???) that will work with slicks?
17x10.5 w nitto 555r 315s
:lol: Thats what I run on the street but not at the track. 2.0-2.2 60fts (a little better if I leave off idle) with tons of wheel hop are what I get with this combo. I like my IRS lol
really i usually never have any issues with wheel hop
I want to use something with a nice big sidewall so 17" wheels are out of the question. 16's are fine i think...i'm not completely sure.
I run a pair of 16x7 V6 wheels (02-04) with 315/45-16 ET Street Radials. I know it doesn't sound like it will work but they love it around 12psi. 1.6 60' leaving easy.
Any pics of the setup? Those tires sound big for the wheel but, I know some guys run 315s on our stock wheels.:shrug:
i would like to see pics also
Well I have fr500 17x10.5 with 335-35-17.
(Dont hook worth a crap but look good!)
Also have my tierod ends ground down and run 15x10 6.5bs prostars

I probably will have to ground the tie rod ends off a little (in the rear) to do 16's then?
Street 17x10.5 with 315 NT05R Hook good but still have wheel hop on the street and track
Track 16x7 94-98 GT wheels with a 26x11.50 MT ET Street. Hooks great and no wheel hop Low 1.7's leaving at 3k

Here's a side shot...I have a picture of just the tire on the wheel somewhere, just gotta find it.
*edit*
Well shit, can't find a picture anywhere. I'll pull the wheels out this weekend and snap a picture. Battery is dead on the camera.

I got these for free...you can definitely get a better deal if you don't care what they look like.
They clear everything with no issues at all, just had to run a 17 on the front because of the brakes.
