Drag Radials
anyone know of a set of drag rims 13x8" with an offset where you don't have to roll the fenders?

What car is it? It all depends on the size of the tire. I've seen lenso's with 24.5" on eg's raised up that don't have fender's rolled

94 DC2, slicks are micky thompsons 13x8x22, they go up to a 26. i'm worried about the 8" depth of them, i'm cutting it really close with the 7's i've got now.

Drag radials are different than a slick..they dont expand as much at speed and they are also not as wide when mounted. Basically measure the gaps between the knuckle and fender of what youve got now, and enter it into this calculator Wheel / tire size calculator / comparer - WWW.RIMSNTIRES.COM
Enter new sizes until you find an 8" wheel offset that will allow you to get close to the knuckle without touching it, and hope it doesn't stick out past the fender... But really you could run an 8" drag radial on a 7.5 no problem. Just dont be a dumbass and stick it on a vx rim...
I also know that an 8" +36 offset will fit under an eg fender pretty easily. I dunno what the space behind it looks like though. And a DR will be a bit wider than a regular tire.

i believe the EG and the DC knuckles are very similar, i'm debating on either the radials or full slicks, but i'm 99% sure i'm going with slicks. i want something i can put on at the track and not have to fuck with the drop height on my springs. the rims i was looking at had a +20 offset. i don't remember brand name though, but they look like really small Rota Slips.

i never had a clearance issue on my slick setup. then i again my cars are not slammed either. what tire size are you running for street tires? figure out the over all height. i think stock is some where around 22.4 inches to 23 inches tall. but if your stock wheels have some gap from the top of tire to fenders you should be good.
