I just tried my sons 275/60/15 Drag Radials mounted on a set on 15x10 wheels with a back space of 5" and I have about 1" of clearance between the tire side wall and the frame which is not notched


Yeah, I'd be a little leary of launching with those tires. The fender lip may take a beating...Although, I understand you were just "tryin them on for size"...

Thanks for the replies, I agree I cant drive around town with anyone in the back seat but I will be trying them out at the track soon. I wont be setting my rear suspension up to squat but to remain neutral. here is a video of my friends chevelle with stock type rear suspension.

I think I know which black Malibu that is, and it is a bad mamajamma! lol. My 28x12.50's rub some around town, no biggie. I just take it easy. Roll the lip if you are worried about cutting a tire. (not gearjammer, just anyone in general).
