GT '99-'04 + Sportlines + ET Drags 28-10.5-15 = rubbing?

Hi.

I plan on installing a MPH Mongoose kit on my '01 GT. The issue: I already have a 4.10 + Eibach Sportlines on the car and I'd like to keep everything. I'd therefore install ET Drags 28-10.5-15 to increase the overall ratio which would bring the trap speed potential to 123 mph in 4th gear which is more than enough.

Will slicks rub???

They probably will. I'm using 28" with stock rear springs, and its already pretty tight.

A coil airbag might be an option to get more clearance at the track.

Here is a photo of my car on 28" slicks and stock springs. Its a digital photo, so you can zoom in close to see the tire/fender up close.

Thanks for the info! I'll look for drag bags.
