I think you can squeeze a 335 under there, if you remove the quads, roll th fender lip, and either do something with your tail pipes or run dumps. a 315 is a popular tire choice for our cars, and require little to no "retro-fitting" to get it to work

Yeah mainly depends what size wheel you're running. Also running 28" tires isn't unpopular.

please stop typing in all caps.


You're already running a pretty decent size tire, what suspension mods do you have? Without too much work i'm pretty sure you could fit a 28x8 or 10" tire under there but i'm no drag pro.
