Anybody Run 275/60-15 BFG Drag Radial's on the Street???

[freak007]

The Weld Draglite's come with a wheel that is 15x8 with both a 4 and a 4.5 Inch Backspacing?? That would solve my problem Im sure.My tire just sticks out a little to much with the 3.5 Inch Backspacing.I have always thought the Draglite's looked the best on Turbo Regals.

to the best of my knowledge the only way to get a Weld Draglite, Rodlite, or Pro Star wheels with 4" BS is to have them custom done, or buy them with 4.5" and use a 1/2" spacer...

we had some with a 3 1/2" backspace and they hit the fenders ..4 1/2 and they are really close to the frame. sooo we just added a 1/4" spacer and all was fine

I thought I had the 3 1/2 backspacing but on my 275/60/15's the tire's are not that far from the frame.Maybe a half an Inch from the frame.Maybe slightly more then a half inch.The tire's are 8.8 inches wide and I was ready to order new BFG Tire's with it being 10 inches wide.

I've had the 275/60's Mt ET drag radials on stock rims on the back. No rubbing issues, but the wheel is a little narrow for that tire. The middle of my tire is now showing threads and the outside has good rubber left. I was running them at about 20 psi.

275/60x15 BFGs on 15x8 Draglite with 3.5 Backspacing. Very minor quarter panel rubbing only when there are adults in the rear seat and I go through a dip at an angle. I do run air bags.

I believe my Telstars are 4" bs with the same tire, no problems at all.

I like the look of your tires, they are tucked under nicely.....sticking out past the fender lip is not for me.....yours looks good!
