I'm looking into buying a set of ET Drags for my Roush Stage 2 and was wondering what wheel size will fit the ET Drag 26" x 10" x 15". I"m considering a set of Weld Racing Pro Star wheels. What backspacing is required for the rear wheels? And for the front (bear in my mind that I have the Roush Brake Kit...BIG!!!)? Will I need any special stud or lug nut? Thanks in advance.

you can use a 15x10.5 inch wheel with a 6.5 backspacing for the rear and for the fronts i use 15x3.5" prostars with a 7/16" spacer but with your brakes i would go with weld racings XP series, they are made for increased caliper clearance.

oh and i think steeda makes a longer 3" stud, which i suggest doing, i dont but i hear you only get like 7 full threads with the stock wheel studs so for safety i would go the new stud route

Thnaks a lot for the information. That's a great thread and it answered most of my questions. I heard lots of people are having rouble fitting the rear wheels...some grinding might be required. Regarding the front wheels, I'm not quite sure if the 15" x 3.5" will fit as I have 13" rotors and Roush calipers. Will have to research a bit more on that before placing the order.
