drag radials for sl600
i already have 295 bfg drag radial tires
the problem is...i have 20'' carlsons on my sl600
what is the cheapest 18 '' rim i can put on the sl.....since im only going to the drag strip 1 or 2 times???
anyone have an old set of rims near nj ???
or do i just spin the hell out of the 305 20'' conti's.......lol
thanks

I too had the same question, and the solution i came upon is having custom wheels made. It is almost impossible to find 5x112 bolt pattern on a good drag wheel, so i found a local wheel shop that is making me 17x10's for 200 a piece, and Im putting a Hoosier 335 Drag Radial on em. Best Combo I could come up with to save traction, cuz I get tired of spinning through the 1/8th . I just couldnt find any good 17" wheels wider than 8", and 18's really narrows the choice in tires.
