k well i just ordered a set of pacer wheels (draglite copies) and there 15x10, and tires are 26x11.5x15, i put them on but the back part of the rim that has the lug holes touches the drum brake, is that bad? theres an insane amount of clearance for a 10" wheel, like more then there should be i think, heres some pics whats wrong? or may be im just dumb and its ok if the wheels touches the drum

do i need some kind of spacer?

dont run in like that... you will have no more wheel left after about 100 miles
















nah jk dude.... think about where the wheel tightens down to? the drum... and since the drum moves with the wheel it's perfectly fine, and id be afraid if i tightened my wheels down and they weren't flush with the drum.

by the way... nice wheels

nah we all make mistakes dude

by the way... couldn't exactly tell with those pics but are you still running quad shocks? good job on fittin that tire if you are still

and also never noticed you ran 13.8 on teh radials especially considering you're very close to stock (no offense at all)


anyway... can't wait to see the times with the new rubber :worship:

yea dude im still to this one, i was 100% sure the quads were coming off, didnt even need to touch them, really odd for a 10" wheel and 11.5" tires

I still have to take it for a test drive and see if it rubs on little bumps or corners but it looks pretty dman good, and concidering there only going on at the track, the only rubbing i have to worry about is when i launch hope it dosent rub the lip

and bout the 13.8 no offense taken im actually pretty proud of my 13.8 for the mods i have, only major things i have are, bcam, catback, o/rh, and gears. Before the gears i ran a 14.2, put the gears in droped down to a 13.8 the first run. I cant wait to take the slicks out to the track, but wed. is our last track day and im not gonna be able to make it, so looks like ill have a little winter project, im just gonna save up and get torque box reinforcments, control arms, and subframes.my goal is to get a 13.3 without adding any hp mods so we'll see, i dobut i can, but maybe thanks for compliments ill make a thread in talk with more pics.

edit: heres the thread just incase

yea tracks out here open in february so i'll hopefully have my suspension done and maybe a new intake by that time. im thinkin about gettin some big drag tires later on down the line but with the lowering springs i dunno how they're gonna fit/perform. id love to go more to the drag setup like your car looks to be going but probably will focus more on handling and streetability, with go-fast goodies of course
