I wanted to know if anyone has ran a slick under their stock S13 wheel well (not tubbing it out any)?If so what size did you end up going and did you have to roll the fender quite a bit?. I am running a 16x8.5'' rim right now and am going to be laying down some pretty decent numbers this season and traction is going to be a issue. I am looking into the Mickey Thompson ET Streets 26x10.5-16, which would be 26'' tall, have 8.4'' on the ground and about a 10.1inch bulge on the side walls with my 8.5inch rim. Has anyone ran these?. How hard would it be to squeeze a 26x11.5-16? (26'' tall, 9.7'' on ground, and the bulge on the side wall should be about 11.1'' or so....)
Are there any other slicks for around the same cost or cheaper that would fit under the S13 wheel well and gets as good of traction as the ET Streets?. I can get them shipped to me for $320.
The other sizes they have for a 16'' rim are:
27x10.5-16 (8.7'' on ground/10.6'' sidewall bulge)28x11.5-16 (8.7'' on ground/10.7'' sidewall bulge)28x12.5-16 (10'' on ground/12.1'' sidewall bulge)***keep in mind that the sidwall bulge is going to be decreased due to me having a 8.5'' width rim.***
