I looked at you wheel and slick set up and like it .I looked at american racing site and see 2 wheels that are the same
767-6885 and 767-6835 I think those are the numbers they say both are 16"x8" rim with 5 135 pattern 5" offset is this the right wheel also what lugs are you using and did you do anything to the wheels so the bead don't slip off the rim
also I could not find the hoosiers in 28" anywhere where did you get yours

thanks
Slick

 

I use the same wheel/slick combo.

My wheel bead never did clamp down and i was forced to purchase a Mr.Gasket Screw kit to get them to bite.

I got my Hoosiers from Jegs.com

I ordered my wheels, same as Robs, from PSP with the open lugs. I got em in 2 days.

 

cool thanks
so I guess I should get the screw kit too

My Rims and Slicks also came from Sal, but through a Customer he hooked me up with that had just sold his L. Mine also have the open Lugs and work fine so far (2) 1.6 + (4) 1.7 60ft times so far. No slipping on the rims that I know about, and I even drove them on the Parkway to the Local track last weekend

Unfortunatly I don't know the correct lug and rim info, but I'm sure Sal does, give him a call, he's always willing to help a Brother out
