tires
I was looking for drag radials for my car
Its an ek hatch with 16in rotas on it
I was looking for BFG's that were 215/55 or 215/50 but all i came up with was something like a 245 .....is there a drag radial made that will fit my rim or do i have to go down to a 15in rim?

To keep my low speed/high torque gearing, I would go with whatever would keep my tire's rolling radius the same or smaller than stock.
Putting taller rims/tires on a drag car will put more strain on the drivetrain
as well as give you longer time/slower speed; 60' times.-Bob
Go small enough on rim/tire diameter, and you can go wider on tire size=more traction off the line, because of increased tire to fender clearance.-Bob
