DRAG WHEEL/Tire setups
 
Okay who has some knowledge or recommendations as to what size drag wheels can fit onto the nismo and what an ideal setup may be. haven't really seen it done yet on our cars.

Tons and tons of info in the wheel/tire section.

"ideal set up may be" ?

Like how can someone answer that?

Is it for a pure stock car?, bolt ons? turbo? supercharged? Nitro? 300H.P TQ? 400, 500, 800 H.P. 500 tq.???? Stock gears? 3:90's, 4:08's?

It's like asking what shoes will fit you :icon17:

N.Y.? what part?

What are you using now? Tires/wheels. Sounds like you should know more than 99% of us.

Right now I am just running on my street setup I got 19" ssr sp3 With Mickey Thompson Et street 2 305/35 -19 on the back.

I was just wondering if anyone else out there has had a slick setup on these cars yet but doesn't seem to be the case so was just wondering if anyone has done it yet.

andre12031948 11-12-2013 06:21 PM
you may know more than me, or maybe I can help???

What's your set up now? Tires/wheels/ suspension not touched? Lowered? What was your 60' time? top speed?

andre12031948 11-12-2013 06:23 PM
You are using the M/T radials-know them well

What's your 60'?

Slicks helped me a bunch over same tire as yours. Also your wheels are too big & you have very thin/little rubber to work with.

as quick as you are, I think I can help you
 
I also want to go to Atco, bracket racing...if it doesn't rain.

You should be doing 10.8's 10.9's

NIZZING 11-12-2013 06:33 PM
my 60' on my 11.7 pass was a 2.0.

I know my wheels are a big that's just what I use in the street and am looking into a smaller wheel I am just not sure what the smallest I can go with our brakes ?

The car is lowered n Kw Variant coilovers

NIZZING 11-12-2013 06:33 PM
open to any suggestions

NIZZING 11-12-2013 06:34 PM
I clocked a 11.7 with a 2.0 60ft' at 125mph
