Going to buy some Greg weld dragstar wheels for my 97 gt 15/8 rear 15/3.5 front questions are...


Anyone running these, whats your opinion.

Along with new lugnuts what else do I need? Offset washers etc.

What backspace would work best 4.5 or 5.5?

As far as tires I have 3.73 gears and Im running a 17 275 40 on the rear now. If I run a 15 275 60 or a 15 275 50 how much are these gonna drop my gear ratio?


Thanks.

A 275/60-15 is essentially a 28" tire, which is too much for what you need. Stick with a 26" diameter tire, like the 275/50-15. Stock tires are 25.8" in diameter, so these will be the same size.

You will want 5.5" BS for an 8" wheel.

Also, for the front skinnies, you'll need a 7/16" spacer to clear the calipers.
