I've got 15x7 V6 wheels with BFG 275/50R15 drag radials. They work just fine, however they appear to be a little "pinched" due to the rim width. Doesn't seem to hurt anything though.

My first time at the track with the DRs was a "track day" put on by ChicagoSVT. I got 24 passes and my best 60ft was 1.79 and most were 1.81-1.85. Not great, but it was also misting off and off all day and had a high of 37*F. So it wasn't a great day for traction. However, the people that could hook, were running great times especially the blown cars with the low ambient temps that day.
