Anyone running 15s in the rear?
 

Looking around to see if anyone has or possibly knows what offset would be a nice fit. Looking to run 15x8 - 15x9 (not sure what offset would fit best) 235/60/15's or 275/50/15's (both 26.1 est diameter)

I'm not sure 15s will fit over your brakes.

I believe there are a few 15s that will fit over the rear brakes, but not the front. 275 is a HUGE tire...are you going to 15s because you want to drag the car? 235 would be plenty of tire for a N/A motor with a drag radial, as would an 8" wheel.

I've seen a few people already fit 15''.

I run Enkei RPF1's, 17x9 +45, 275/40/17 Nitto 555R rear on mine, so it's doable.

I was more referring to the NEED for 275s, not whether they'd actually fit, so much. With a 2JZ, yeah; with an N/A FA20, you'd be wasting money.

Yeah, I know Full-Blown's Bogart's they have are 15's, but I couldn't find the specs on them to get an idea on the offset.. I only plan on running the 15's in the rear, car is going to be used mainly for drag (I probably should have mentioned that) and will not be N/A.
Yeah I know they'll be big, I'd much rather run with the 235's being that they would be about 2" thinner. That way, when the rear comes down on launch it will have less chance of rubbing

Right on. I'll reach out to the OP and see if he had to run any kind of spacer or mod anything. Very glad to see 26" fit very well in there.. I plan on getting 26"x8.5x15 Slicks and then the mentioned sizes above ET Streets for the street. Had them on my Vette and loved them.
Have you tracked your set up as is before? If so, what did the 60ft look like on the 40's?

I think that means they build them to YOUR specs, so, measure carefully...

I think they measured them to stock brakes. To get something out there for us all.
