ZR1 w/ SLICKS - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Anyone here a drag racing junky? I was wondering if anyone has ever bolted on a set of drag slicks to their ZR1? If so what size tire and what size rim? What offset? Skinny's in front? Was the rear tire size maximized for the car?

I was just looking at some WELD drag lites I had leftover from a previous project and thought maybe they could work. They are 15's so I doubt the fronts will clear the calipers but the rears definetely will. They are kinda small, 26X10, but certainly better than street tires. I was just wondering how much tire I would be giving up by using these instead of just buying the widest thing possible.
