I bought spacers for my drag wheels.
Ray, What are those? are they placed behind the rim and bolted to the studs? I think the offset is find but the tire is taller then the 40's .
Well i received the tires yesterday and now I have some reservation on whether they will work or not. See photos, before I mount them, looking for advice on if it will work. I can send back if it wont fit.

Here are so pictures of the old tire wear showing the cracking, this might of been my fault for how they were stored.

maybe I should replace the M/T with one of these tires? I'm sure there not as sticky.

Thanks again Slizzo, I received the new Rims yesterday. $109.00 from TireRack on a clearance sale. The finish and quality look really good, but I'm not a subject matter expert in this area. Also, like how close they look to the stock Rims. I don't care much for the center cap but I can change this later. 2017-10-11 12-13-06_20171010_140746.jpg - Windows Photo Viewer.png2017-10-11 12-13-06_20171010_140746.jpg - Windows Photo Viewer.png2017-10-11 12-02-23_20171010_140731.jpg - Windows Photo Viewer.png2017-10-11 12-13-28_20171010_140757.jpg - Windows Photo Viewer.png
Look a lot like GTO wheels. I like Enkei wheels, they make a really nice wheel.

The Wheels are mounted on Rims and installed. Can't believe I was so worried about the fit. I have plenty of room... I'll upload pictures tomorrow. I think I'm set for "Vicary Days" at Cordova International Raceway on Sunday. Hoping for no rain low DA's and a trap time below 11.612.
