    stock wheels or aftermarket for 28x11.50x16 drag radials?

    I have a pair of 28x11.50x16 drag radials from when I had my trailblazer SS (she got that in the divorce)....i know that the bolt pattern isnt the same from the trailblazer SS to the silverado....I have an 07 2wd fleetside silverado that I want to get some wheels for to run the radials at the track....I dunno if I can just get some stock take off wheels from another silverado or if I should just buy some black steelie trailer wheels for it....I would love to just get some stock take offs because it will be cheaper....BUT I just dont know about the WIDTH of the radials on the stock wheel......what do you guys think?
    Does anyone run cal-tracs? I didnt need them with my trailblazer cause it had a four link rear end in it.....at what point do you guys start using the cal-tracs on trucks? All i will have is a CAI,shortie headers & corsa pipe, and an LS6 cam with a nelson tune.......I ALMOST have enough cash....by next month i will be able to afford it....just trying to plan ahead.....
