Default drag setup

Recently I've been looking for a good drag setup I ran into these on craigslist and the price is right I was wondering if the wheel setup would bit over 08 stock brakes...

Not sure about the front but the rears should clear as long as you have non-brembo.

You can also just run street tires up front. Skinny's aren't worth the effort unless you're a seriously bad-*** driver. E.g. 100+ runs in the Z under your belt. I run 20" boat anchors up front with ET Streets on the rear (great tire BTW).

15s won't clear the 08 front brakes. They will only work on the 03-05 fronts. the rears should be fine. I have the 17in skinnies on my 08 there are pics of my set up in this section. PM if you are interested the set up is for sale.
