I bought them just for the light weight and because they are 15" wheels. I run my 16 x 8 GTA's 99% of the time. I wanted the 28" tall tire with as much sidewall for my trip to the track. I got them from a board member at a killer price. It just took forever to get the MT et streets. I will be installing some 2.5" wheel studs this week and hopefully make it to the track on MArch 30.

Dont tell anyone that my IC scoop is a Rubbermaid thrashcan...it might knock the value of my car down by about $4000.

Heres a GTA wheel pic.

The 16" DR's dont hook under 35 mph..they are 26" tall...thats why I got the 15" weld wheels and 28" DR's. Hopefully good 60 foot and some extra time in third gear on the top end.

Thanks for all the compliments. Yes I have a lot of blood, sweat and tears in her as many of the members have in their own rides. I am only running 20-21psi of boost and I want a conservative mid-low 11 second timeslip. This is a very low mile car that will only see the track maybe once or twice a year to get results for the mods. I did not build the bottom end of the the engine to take a lot of abuse so thats why I am not gonna get crazy with alot of boost. Anyway my track down here is very strict with NHRA rules. I dont have a cage so I dont think I will be making to many runs under 11.49

The rims look good. Glad they worked out.

Nice paint and clean motor compartment.

Sounds like you have the right idea IMO. With the combination you have it should easily run those numbers on low boost
