Drag setup
 
I have been looking for awile for a proper drag wheel set up for this car and it seems that no one makes them. I would like to avoid custom made wheels but I'm not finding anything. BTW looking for skinies in the front and wide in the back. Let me know if this wheel set up exist on this car.

How much power are you putting down?

Not sure exactly how much I'll be running. Probably around 300 hp and 300+ torque. Im spinning way to much right now and im adding more power.i have my factory wheels with nitto NTO1s on the rear. Plan on going 9 inch in the back.

I wouldn't worry about a set of drag wheels in our cars until 500+whp. Id get as a wide a wheel as possible but keep it light, and stick a stick tire (Nitto R888 is a good one) should hook just fine

Not really too concerned with the rear wheels but I need to find some skinies for this car. Thats why I made this post

Gotcha. Yeah I got no ideas on that one. Maybe post in the sub section for racing?
Doesn't specify drag racing but I'm sure they could be of help

A 17" Mickey Thompson et street radial should be more than enough for that power level
