i think some of the 295/65/15's or even maybe the 315/60/15's would be bad *** on all 4 corners.
whats it take to get 15's on the trucks? and has anyone tried a 15" on the front?

Dont think they will fit a NBS due to the brake size. But I have never tried them for sure.

you have to cut/grind the calipers down in a certain area to gain the needed clearance. it's a substantian amount....greysilver has done it i think...mine will be getting done at RPM down here in Lewisville May 3rd when it goes in for cage and suspension work.

nasty as in not good? i have never been a big fan of 20's or anything like that. i really like the stock rims the best.

part number:3796
It says they'll fit on a 8" rim, so a stock wheel might be close.

maybe i should just get some wider street tires, just geting more rubber down would help alot i bet.

Here is the ideal drag radial for our trucks. It's 28.8 tall x 16" rim, 9.5 wide and looks good. I didn't find these until I had already purchased my ET Streets. http://www.intercotire.com/html/radial_racing.htm
