5.5 BS on my 99 GT...

[8banger]

Got a chance at some Weld drag stars used,,,skinnies on the front and 10 inch on the rear...only prob is there 10 inchers with a BS ing of 5.5.....Anyone know if they will fit..I can visualize it..,,,,but..hate to by only to rub...I have 10 inch(18 bullit) in the back but a 6 inch BS now....and they fit great..Thanks....

[8banger]

Just came in from the garage...and measured up...not gonna fit....so any suggestions on what width and BS and size MT ET ? AJ?anyone?

they sell longer studs and spacers just for that very reason. I know Jegs has them.

I'm pretty sure that 6.5" backspacing works very well on SN95's.

He needs a 6.5bs with a 10" rim. Any type of spacer would make his problem worse.

Thanks everyone... I ordered pro stars 15 x 10 6.5 BS in the rear and some skinnies up front....The tires I'm still stuck on...want the m/t drag radials 275/50/15's but wonder if they will survive any street driving...dont want to replace them every 2 k miles. Anyone with experiance with these?on the street and track?Thanks again

Up front to run the skinnies you will need a spacer and you will need to grind your brakes down just a bit. You will need to grind down the bar that runs under neith the brake caliper( I don't know if that makes since) I would recomend running longer studs up front just for saftey reasons also

Cincy Speed has what you need!

How thick a spacer?yeah makes sense..caliper slide bracket...

[MADMOD]

I am having a brain frart hear but if you call Cincy Speed Craig can tell you. That is where I bought mine. I have to stop by my house tomorrow and I will check and see what it says on my box.

[8banger]

Cool..I'll try and call Craig tomorrow also..Thanks

When you put the longer studs in you may have to Knock the paint off of the fat end of the stub (there is a name for these) to get them to pull in alittle easier. I used an Impact gun and a stock lugnut to pull mine in the front. If you plan on doing the rear studs too you will problay have to pull the axles. Man ole Man got to love the smell of rear end grease:barf:

I called Craig today and he wasnt sure the thickness of the spacer ,,but another guy told me they need to be 1/2 thick..sounds like alot,....yeah,,I 've got a stud installer (bearing type) to install them..really easy...from matco a few weeks ago....shitz,,,now just need to get over there and get them...Bad thing is I dont get off of work til 5:pm and they close at 6:00....gettin from n.Ky through 5: traffic ...I dont know if I could make it or not...may have to wait til sat ...last minute ..before the UMTR event........shitzky...

I Unloaded your MT Drag raidals today at work. Should have them sometime this after noon.....I have to keep an eye on the Competion.....So I check who gets all the performance parts at work. Sad I know but I have to have something to do besides throw boxes out of a trailer all damn day.

Last a year!:lol:
Is it daily driven, or just occasionally driven on the street?

I usaully make a set of street tires last about 8-9 months. Nitto DRs usually last me 5-6 months. I had a set of MT 275/50/15 DRs on my Cobra for a month and a half and they were toast:eek: (the car sat for almost two weeks during that time with a broken input shaft).
