Hey, I'm new...

Hoping yall could help, I have a 92 GT and I plan on going to the track this weekend and I bought a rear set of 275 BFG drag radials on the 15x7 inch LX 10 holes', but they won't fit cause of the rearend slanted (hydra shock, I think) shock, I know I have seen this setup on my car before so what do people do... just take the shock off?
It runs 14's flat on 17 inch 245's so I'm hoping for a little more bite. Thanks!

Try to flip the quad shock upside down, that will give more clearance. You can remove them but you might get a lot of wheel hop until you do better upper and lower rear controll arms.

Thanks..

I will try that, but I don't know if that wil give me enough room either, it's really cramped. I see you race at southeastern in Georgia, that aint too far off, I run at South Georgia Moto Complex down here in Cecil.
