I'll probably just bite the bullet and end up getting some 15X10 Bogarts to match the 15X5 fronts I have. My plan is to get some Hoosier 30X10.5-15 D05 Radials. That seems to be a good size and compound that a few people are running and cutting some awesome short times with. What say you? If I run this tire, should I go with a 15X10 or a 15X8 rim?

Pretty sure these are still available

That's where I'm trying to go. I ran what's in my sig on 16 PSI, 18* of timing, and 28" slicks on the stock trans (with PI 2400) and stock diff. I was still spinning a little off the line with 13 PSI in the slicks and they were screwed to the rims. I'm getting a Level-10 Stage III Built Trans, True-Trac, and upping the boost a little. Hopefully I will be able to crack the 10's with some traction.
