Well I went racing on Sunday and found out I need a good set of rear tires. At low boost I ran a 13.5 but traction is a serious problem. I went thru the trap @ 120 mph though. Can anyone reccommend a set of rear wheels that fit and a set of drag radials or should I go all the way to slicks??
 
You have 2 choices, one is eagle alloy rims 17or 18x10 and drag radials but they are shorter than factory height so gearing will change.

2 Shave the calipers to fit 16 inch rims and use MandH nostalgia slicks and 16x10 rims, but the calipers must be shaved to fit any 16 inch rims, no 15's at this time will fit.

Or get a custom set of CCW or Bogart 16 inch rims to work.
 
The stock wheels are 22"x10" and have 6.5" of backspacing.

With 120 MPH trap speeds you have a serious quantity of HP on tap.
You will need to go with a full drag slick.
 
We have a vendor on here that I met in Bakersfield if I remember correctly.:D
