Looking at rear wheel setup that I can throw on the car and drive to the track on. I'm not worried about rain. If there is even a chance the car doesn't leave the garage. I really want to run the Mt et street 2's but I'm scared the 305/35-19 will rub on the sve drift wheel.(also the rim is a bit narrow.) A 295/45-17 is the ideal height but I'm not sure I can find a rim with the correct offset. Theoretically a taller sidewall is better on the track correct? Or does this not apply to drag radials?
Difference between 17, 18, 19 drag radials.

I have 17x10 cheapo american muscle bullitts with 295/45r17 mickeys. No problems and great grip.
You are correct the bigger the sidewall the better the traction.
if your buying diff wheels anyway get 15s taller side wall is better for bite and also cuts down on drivetrain shock when launching

my exact set up :rockon: but I'm going with 15x8 racestars with 275/60/15 drag radials to absorb SOME drive train shock
Yes. I was able to get my set up used for an amazing price from another board member. They only had 10 passes on them.
It says they will not clear the brakes on a 2011+ Mustang
Maybe it's referring to Brembo cars.
15" wheels fit over the rear brakes on 2011+ cars...
Hmmm decisions, decisions. I was looking at 15 rims as well but I couldn't find a Mt street et 2. I'm sure now I want to stick with a radial tire for the stability after reading up on it.
I cut a 1.69 60' on stock suspension and 3.31's with my 17" set up.
does anyone have to relocate their sway bar on a 15x10 or a 295 tire?
For a 15x10 rim, yes you must. For the 17 inch 295 tire, no there is plenty of clearance.
