guys im gettin ready to slap some rubber on my bogarts.. im going to go with a 30"x10 slick. im using a a 16x10 rim. which slicks do you guys recommend? i hear M/H but its listed as a 14" slick, im worried about fittment issues do to my truck being lowered. i was looking into Hoosier slicks but i havent seen anything 30x10x16 from them. wrote them an email last week but no response yet.. what do you guys think?? any suggestions would help. thanks...

 

I'm running those with 2" lowering shackles. No problem with rubbing, but these are HUGE. In the Jeggs catalog they say they are 14" wide sidewalls and 10" treadwidth. LIES! In reality they are 12" tread.

 

do you think i will have any problems with a 4" drop in the back? my 28" hoosiers tucked in the wheel wells when i launched it.. which is why im concerned..

 

Richie
Hoosier does NOT have a 30 x 16 slick. Check with others I think (IMO)14" is too much tire for our trucks.

 

Rich, I do not think you will find anything else in 16" for our trucks. Seems everyone is running this combo, although you may be the lowest I have seen trying these. Maybe someone local has a set of theses wheels/tires to try on before spending the $$$.

thanks guys.. Jim, if i new someone that had them i would ask in my area.. i would ask JDM but, i kinda have a feelin they want nothing to do with me.. but thats not for public discussion.. i just got my e-fan in and i gotta open the box make sure it is all ok to go.. i wanna race bad.. im picking up a trailer this week and if i break at the track i wont mind now hahahaha..

 

If you buy them and have fitment issues I will buy them from you if no damage is done. Let me know when you are heading to the track.

sounds good pal... im going to do some tweaking to my truck maybe slap that Whipple on but im to chicken chit to do it on the stock block.. i have a heavy foot and i know what will happen.. KABOOM.. i still have to put my Strange adjustable rear shocks on too.. i have a lack of time lately.. i just spent a feqw days working on the interior.. i wrapped my headliner in black suede. came out pretty good.. it was my first time doin it so im pleased..

 

On 16 x 10" American Racing Baja wheels these DO NOT fit under the wheel well arch. They do stick out. I don't know the offset of your wheels but I'd be concerned also. My truck doesn't squat under acceleration, it rises (Lakewood slapper bars) so no problem for me. For you......

 

im using the 16" Bogarts with a 6.5" BS..

 

Rich have trouble launching




Jim lets not forget we're talking bout "THE SHREDDER" here
Who else do we know that de-rims BOTH Slicks on a Launch

Rich I searched and searched but couldn't find any pic's, where are they all ??

 

I just put 2 and 2 together.. That was you at E-Town in the right lane sitting on the rims at about the 200' mark. Hey Rich !!! I would love to see that head liner, are you coming to the BASH!!! the list is growing!!!

 

hahahaha the shredder... Rob whee the hell ya been ya bum... im suppose to be headin up your way this week to get the trailer.. give me a call we can go hit up Hooters..

 

its going to be real close if i show or not for the bash.. i will call you and let you know for sure pal...

 

Just donate your lowering kit to a nice sonic blue L and you won't have any problems.. lol.
