I was looking to buy a lightweight set of 15" rims and I kinda had my heart set on the Kosei K1's from tirerack. But I also wanted to run BFG Drag radials and the smallest size they come in is like 235/60/15. I don't think it would fit on the kosei's. Are there any other DOT approved DR's that would fit the K1's? Or even different 15" lightweight, decently priced rims?
Any help would be great!

that size tire will fit a 15x7
but the offset , tire height , and how low you have the car are what will dictate wether they will fit under your car
i also was planing on using that size , but i gotta find a 15 that will clear my wilwood brakes
You're gonna want to use a 235/50/15 instead, man. The 235/60/15 is taller than your stock tires, but the 235/50/15 is a bit shorter. For drag racing a shorter tire is better than a taller one, it'll give a slightly better accelleration.
im actually wanting the taller tire
gotta kill a little power off the line , and gain some on the top
plus no one makes a drag radial in a 235/50
The recommended size for the wheel is 205/60/15. So those DR's would fit, but it would be larger in diameter?

I have bfg dr in 215/60/14 and they come smaller than that. Look on tirerack.com.
