I am going to be buying some slicks and skinnies and want to know what the biggest tire will fit in the stock wheel well? Also what slicks are tubeless? are tubes hard to deal with and do u need beadlocks. Also what wheels are u running and whats the backspacing? Post pics if u have them.

I just put on 15x10 Weld draglites with 275x50 Mickey Thomspon Drag radials. They fit perfect with the quad shocks and all, had to hammer the flowmaster catback a tad. The backspacing was 6.5

I don't know about slicks, but the F1's (street tires) that I run ar a little over 13 inches wide. This is on a 10.5 inch wheel, though. I know some guys run 11 inch wheels, too. But you don't NEED them wide. You can go too wide. Sidewall is where your traction is. The setup that zenboy99 runs sounds like the perfect combination for slicks. Maybe a little more sidewall, though.
