Street/Strip 15x10, D10s. Just the basic ones. I plan to drive these all over the street just like I did with my Racestars.

Now, I gave in and ordered them with 6.5" backspace. I KNOW that I could have gone up to 7", but my Racestars were 7.25" and I had some issues with the 315 DR rubbing on my inner wheel wheel. Clearance to the leaf was 1/16".

The 6.5" BS will give me the greatest tire selection in the future without having to worry about cutting down a tire. With 315 DRs, yes they will stick out the side a bit, but IMO the 315 DRs are not ideal for 10" wide rims (11" also for that matter). I haven't decided yet it I want to mount my current 315s on the Bogarts or go with a 295/65 or even one of the newer MT tires like the ET street R or pro bracket radial. The latter two really aren't suitable for street driving at all though.

Also, scored this on ebay, I almost couldn't believe it. Been a member on there for almost 15 years and finally got someone at a deal. $75 in mint condition. 86k miles on odo. I got this for 2 reasons. 1, 120 speedo will be very useful at the track 2. I'm going to put a boost gauge on the A-pillar because at the track I have no clue how much boost I'm building at the line. Was guessing based on sound - obviously that wasn't accurate.

Seems to be differences related to the 14 bolt vs 10 bolt

FYI, I had the 315 DRs tucking in the rear with flip kit.

To be honest, you've got a nice safe margin to the leaf spring there. The real issue is that the 315s a bit too wide for the stock fender well even with pulled out fenders and stock leafs.

I truly feel to do these tires real justice you need 14" wide wheels and double beadlocks.

i agree with the 14" with beadlocks, we have them on a set of 15x12 bogarts on blue beast and they are just a hair more square on that wheel

I never said my **** was fast lol.

Now, I just went out and did some logging. I'm on full E85 now.

6400 rpm 112% duty cycle, 16.9 psi. Consistently, as soon as duty cycle goes into the mid 90s AFR starts shooting up. I'm pretty confident that my fuel pumps, stock fuel filter and stock lines are not a restriction. It looks like my last hurdle are these fuel injectors and getting something bigger. The 1300s probably be cutting it too close, so the 1700s may be in order.
