currently running 22" TBSS replicas on my 04 gmc rcsb 2wd. im wanting to sell those and go for a drag looking truck. i have a 4/6 drop ready to go in as well. future plans are turbo+mods to back the look up.
anyone have suggestions? these will be DD wheels so bogarts are out plus those are pricey.
any pics of those tbss? might b interested... im tired or my ltz tahoe replicas- cant decide what to get next!
Im running some Diamond racing steelies. 15 x 10 with 6.5" BS out back with some 325/50/15 nitto 555r's. Street setup. They were about $260 shipped for the pair.

Damn that looks good^^^^
Thanks man. They work pretty good for the street
How you think they would do on new asphalt?
Just depends on power. If the goal is max traction, go with the bfg drag radial 325/50/15. But these will outlast the bfg 3 times lol. I would imagine with my current setup, it would spin once it hits boost in 1st. If I hit in 2nd from 45 or so it would hook pretty good with these. Brake boosting at 45 in 2nd and they will spin through the brakes lol
My "mexico" was recently repaved and I'm looking for something that will hook on it.
These for max traction

These for great traction and a little more tread for the occasional wet driving

And these for better than street tire traction, best wear, and good wet traction

I've heard some good things about M&H tires, I think DBRODS runs them and said they hooked better than the other set he had..
yea I've heard good things about them too. I just didn't post them bc they were a little more expensive, about $265 each. MT also makes a 325/50/15
Check out Centerline Split Spoke, they favor the Bogart D-10's but at almost half the cost.
Here is a picture of my Split Spokes.

Mickey Thompson ET Street Radials is the best hooking tire your going to find for the street but they wear fast.
Great info on drag radials:

more info on the wheels!!! How much was a whole set? And do they come in 6 X 5.5?
Roughly $1300 shipped. I had to do a 5 lug swap because they only come in 5 lug.

^ I'm running 16x8 soft 8s up front. But they only offer the 15x10 in 4" BS so they won't work. That's why I went with diamond racing

dont have too many pictures. wheels are seasonal and always get put up for bad weather.
Have you thought about having them recentered to whatever offset you want? I did a set this weekend... Not bad at all to do...Quote:

here is a set i did this weekend... some old school chevy wheels I just cut the centers loose and moved them out... spun them to make sure they were true and welded them back up...

it can be done pretty easy with any steel wheel... its a pain in the ass but if your on a tight budget its a option...
i won an auction for some MB72 wheels.
stay tuned
