Drag wheels

Tim Adams · 10-30-2016, 04:29 PM

Not the greatest pic but just did a test fit with Race Star wheels. No problems.

17 x 4.5" front 92-745242 DP
17 x 9.5" rear 92-795252 DP

Lugs part# 601-1428-20

M&H drag radial 275/50R17 for the back
M&H radial front 17 x 4.5"

Both tires are 28" closely matching the stock tire height.

It's not seen too easily, but yes there is a jack stand under the car, and damn those stock wheels and tires are heavy!!

How is the offset do they fit properly ... Do they fit with no mods

Tim Adams · 11-01-2016, 09:41 AM

Standard offset, no mods. Use the part #'s provided and everything fits.

If you are lowered you might want to call Mike at RaceStar and have them mill the back of the rears to move them in a little more. For a wallet friendly set up they are not bad.

hmmm, so even 17s fit. Good to know for another possible winter wheel/tire option.

I'm only lowered 1", they will be fine.

With a 28" tall tire and BMR springs, they didn't work for me,

I'm going to try as is since other members were using different tires than I will. If that does not work I will take the tires off and send them back to Race Star and have them mill some material off. I have all winter to get it done.

KyWildcats · 11-05-2016, 10:43 AM

Please keep me updated Tim really want some racestars for the track but can't stand the wheel gap

Tim, I can't remember if you're lowered or not.
Had a friend run a set this weekend, cleared without rubbing on a non-lowered car. Phone was dead so I didn't get pictures.
