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.

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

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
