I have a 2003 twin turbo Z. I am trying to find what size the smallest size rim that will fit the car. I am getting Nitto 555, and they are strictly for drag. Since I am trying to save money I would like to get the smallest size rims. Any suggestions?

 

Why would you use a regular street tire for strictly drag racing? Why not use a drag radial?

 

You are not a drag racer.

 

You have a TT Z and you are trying to save money on WHEELS????

 

go to a discount tire...tell them to put some cheap mag 15's on it with some hoosier drag radials....

i mean really man....come on now

 

put spares all the way around. they hook great


in all seriousness though, get a 16 with some drag slicks not radials. Im under the impression you dont have a bbk.

Depends if you have OEM Brembos, OEM nom-Brembos, or other brakes, though it seems silly to skimp on a drag set-up.

Which TT kit do you have?

 

^+1 your rotor size would be a main factor in what rim size you can fit.

 

A "drag" setup without DR's or slicks? AND cheap usually HEAVY wheels as well?

Great thinking bud...

 

I run DR's for my street setup.....just got them delivered yesterday

This year trying Nitto NT555R extreme's 305-35-18 (used to run same tire on my 03 cobra, different size though)... Wanted something that could still be driven on if I got caught in rain.

Last year ran a 295-35-18 BFG DR...thanks to Scott!!!!....but if someone spit in front of the car, hang on.

Me have TT also and I run 345 rear and 125 front on 13's and it hooks up like the devil.....

 

This forum has had an invasion of dumb ****s lately. Sucks Z's have dropped to that income level.

 

Fail

 

I caught on the hiway in a very light rain with BFG DRs........30mph and the a$$ end was still all over the road.

 

Wrong forum. I'm moving this thread.

 

You still running stock brakes in the rear or no?

 

 

Jesus you guys chewed him up and spat him on the sidewalk. Remind me not to ask any dumb questions when I go FI...

 

Anyone else notice he posted this two days ago and hasn't responded? Is this guy troll status yet btw?
