Yup, And yes I have a stock width rear end, as long as you wanna run 26's I'd say any fbody could do the 6.5 B/S on the rear's you MIGHT get away with a 28 if you feel lucky

I dont think that 28's would fly.

I bolt on my draglites from the Cobra on stephs Camaro (dual bolt pattern FTW!) They're 15x10 6.5 BS. They dont stick out, but they are completely flush with the outer whellwell lip. My 26x10x15 ET drags dont hit, but Ive never driven it on the street with them. Im pretty sure there would not be enough clearance for a 28. If the outer fender lip was rolled, they may work.


BTW, it looks bad ass!

Let me know how the stars work out on the street. I recently picked up a set of front Pro Stars and was going to get a 15x8 w 5.5bs summit star for now, but if the 10's w 6.5 will work, Id rather them.

My 28" ET radials rub slightly. Cutting that part out of the fender though.

Those summit stars remind me of my Centerline Telstars:

I got mine for $500 brand new about 5 years ago now.

It's 15x4 1.75bs and 15x8 5.5bs Centerline Telstars, 26x7.5x15 MT ET Fronts and 26x10.5x15 ET Streets. Suspension is KYB Fronts, SLP takeoff rears, Hypercoil Springs. Not really set up for drag launching, but that's going to change to QA1 shocks eventually though.

In all reality I wouldn't of even really parked the car there, for fear of door ding's

Well, it DEFINATELY depends on the tire you are running. I now have a set of 275/50/15 MT drs on 15x10 6.5bs draglites on Stephs Camaro. The tire sticks out about 1/2"-3/4" past the wheelwell lip. It is hard to tell in your pics from the angle that they were taken, it looks like the wheel might be sticking out past the lip a hair, but the tire looks slightly narrower at the tread and tucks it in. Do you have any close up pics that shows the tire/lip relation?
