275/35-18 DFG drag radials on OEM 18x8" rim
I get alot of people tell me that 275/35-18 drag radials are to wide for OEM 18s I also get alot of requests for pictures so people can see how "fat" they fit. Now I know this is not and ideal size rim for tires that wide but I only make it to the track 4-5times a year so it works fine for me. If I went 2-3 times a month I might shell out and get a better set up but for guys that go just a few times a year this seems to work well.

As I stated above I wasnt about to spend a bunch of cash on a lighter wider wheel to use it 5 times a year. This isnt a hard core drag racer set up its a simple solution for guys looking for a little more grip with out spending a ton of cash.

You don't have to spend a bunch of cash on some lightweight 18" wheels for drag racing. If people don't plan on having a BBK, some lightweight 17's or 16's can also get the job done for very cheap.
My recommendation is to get a used setup. I got mine with some lightweight 17's with tons of thread for 200 OTD

Too bad I don't have the traction I need [and want]. I need to get an alignment asap.

I deal with a wheel/tire guy that mostly mounts performance wheels and tire combos at a large shop and he had no issues with mounting them for me. I have driven 200-300miles (to and from the track) I only made 10-15 passes on them though due to a few broken axles. I agree with skater if I would have found a used set up cheap I would have done that....but when I was looking nothing was availible and where I live is not a hot bed for this kind of stuff and of course I kept an eye out on here but nothing came up. I also have 355mm discs in the rear.
