I ran ET streets that were 26 inches tall and i think 10 inches wide and had no problems unless i took real sharp turns....I just put some of those new ET Street Radials that Mickey Thompson came out with and they are 26 in. tall but a little bit wider...and as long as i dont turn to hard iam good....but if your just drag racing....no prob.

My car is converted to five lug using the ranger rear axles and the Lincoln mark V rotors upfront.

Will i have any issues mounting up these rims ? If so What modifications would be necessary? Thanks for the technical help, Andrew

Edit tire up front are Tires are 25 x 4.5 x 15 Moroso DS-2’s

Any one know what a reaosnable price is?
I ran the exact rear tire wheel combo w/ no issues. You'll be fine. You may need to flip or remove the quad shocks. That's about it.







The ones in the pics are dr's, but I run the exact same size in M/T slicks w/ no problems either







They do not rub.
