Default Summit Racing drag wheels - what size?

Anyone have them?

Looking for an inexpensive wheel for the rear for drag use only and was recommended these:

What sizes do I need to look into for drag wheels like backspacing, bolt pattern size, offset, anything?

Was looking into a 15x8 and running a 275 M/T et street

It will all be the same. Exactly what my1stgt posted is probably what 90% of the guys out there are running...depending on your setup you may benefit from a 28" tire aka 275/60/15 but would need more info on your setup

more than likely you will just need 26" 275/50/15, they should make a world of a difference if you are currently running on street tires
