I have a set of 17inch stock escalade rims that I planned on using as a drag setup. I'm looking for suggestions on which ones to get. Also how wide can you go on these rims? How tall should I go? Heres two that I'm looking at...

how wide is that rim, if its 7.5 that widest you can go is 275 .

 

Ya its a 7.5 so I'll most likely go with the M&H dr. Does anyone have any experience with that brand?

 

- are you going full slick or drag radial.

 

drag radial

 

GO with mts all the way. I did a 1.62 on a 50 shot on my wifes tbss with 295 45 17.

i would go with a short tire 275 40 17 mt drag radial would be best for you so you will be well in the powerband goin thru the traps. if you get a tall tire you will prob be barly into 3rd.

 

Thanks for the suggestion Tony, I'll probably end up going with those. I'd just have to go with a shorter tire up front too, or have my truck lean back. Btw are you gonna bring the silver one out soon?

 

yah at pinks in sept. I allready raced my wifes tbss and beat it 4 times and her truck ran 11.9. I had at least 6-7 car lengths at 120 when i shut down.

 

Nice. Sounds like you should be deep into the 11's when you do take it to the track. You ever thought about a cam/Lts on your wifes tbss?

 

nah keepin it a sleeper. im doing a ported intake manifold and 4 inch cold air intake set up next thats alll.

the adm 3 inch y pipe and the magnalfow muffler flow more than good for what i need it to do.
