Wheel and tire combo

[nickstobias]

Hello all,question all of you? I like the old school drag race look with the smaller wheel bigger fat tire combo, can you keep the fronts stock? I have a 09. Also does anything else need to be changed during the swap? Calipers, etc? I would imagine handling would be worse but the straight line performance would be good. I’m at 700 rear wheel horsepower. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks much everybody.!

In the rear you will need relocation brackets to be able to clear a 15 inch wheel.

You can do 17” front on the ‘09-12 cars but 18” is easier. I run 18/15 on my car but the 17” rear is an option but the 325/50/15 does look great on these cars.
Sway bar relocation bracket as mentioned but it’s a minor deal.

Looks great! I think you also run Wilwood front brakes? I don’t think 17s are as easy with stock brakes (def not the ‘13-14 cars) but I do like my 6piston 14” Wildwoods (I swapped to save weight and make skinnies easier).
