[QUOTE="Rice_slayer, post: 769802, member: 9927"] So, I finally got a nice pair of cheap 15" rims(ranger ones, oh yea!) to mount some ET Street radials on for track purposes. Problem: The rims are only 15x7, so my questions are (Keep in mind that these tires are for 100% drag track use only, NEVER to be driven on the street): 1. How bad would it be to stuff a 275/60 on this rim? would it bulge bad and not grip properly? 2. I know I can safely fit a 255/65 onto these rims and not have any issues, but will it be enough tire for my car? (HCI 5.0L, roughly 260-290rwhp?) Thanks ahead of time and yes, I test fitted the rim before buying them, they are from a friend of my dad, so I got them cheap :). [/QUOTE]
