WTB: Rear wheels and slicks for the Capri

[Eagle]

Who's got something for me? I want to get this thing mini-tubbed eventually, so I dont want to drop actual $ on wheels/tires yet. Just need something to put on her for the track other than the M&H's.

If you decide to buy new shoot me a PM. I have a 10% discount code for Summit that expires in about a week

I've got a set of MT Streets in the garage with 3 passes on them and maybe 40 miles if that. 295's 65 15's I think

J bigs would probably be willing to share his Mickey Thompson drags 26 by 11 and a half 15

The car isn't gonna like a 26" tire. Not with the converter in the car. I have some slightly used 28 x 10 slicks I can let go for a good price. Can also hook you up with new rims & tires if neede. I also got the wheel spacers Saturday. So I need to get those to you too.

I hope you've found a small pile of stuff for me Talk to me on these tires and wheels you're proposing.

I have some M/T 28x10 stiff sidewall slicks that I used last year on the GT. It only went out 3 times I believe. So plenty of life left in them.

You can buy a new pair of 15x8 weld pro stars or drag lites for cheap.

Yes, I have a pile of stuff for you. Let's hope Thursday is nice and I can meet you at Lukes.

5x4.5 flanges is what I need, right?

Here are a couple options to look into.

FS: 15x10, 6.5" backspace Prostars with 28" Hoosier QT Pros

Wtt 4 lug drag lites

 

[Eagle]

The QTPs are sold, the others are 4 lugs. Close, but no cigar.

oh sorry. I was on the phone all day. From 8:45 till 6:10. literally all day besides one bathroom break. So I was quite distracted. Surfing a little here and there when on hold to get some relief with dealing with retail people all day. ugh

Just get a set of used Pro Stars. As for slicks listen to Pratt, he knows the car. I would probably run 28" slicks but they rub my rear skirt. So I have been running 26", but also run 3.27 gears.

Just need to find a pair of wheels then, Craigslist and local forums seem to have come up empty.

Ya? WHAT YEAR WAS THAT IMAGE ETCHED INTO THAT PIECE OF STONE?

 

[blck10th]

I still have my 28x 10.5 stiff wall slicks. 4 passes on them. If I knew I wouldn't get a itch I'd offer up my 15 x 10 hole shot wheels.

 

[Pressure Ratio]

A 15x10 stretches the tire a lot. It is hard to fit a 15x10 wheel and 28x10 slick in the earlier wheel wells. That will happen with a mini tub.

Easy killer........ She will go down the track again soon. And she will probably give that race car of yours a run for it's money. :smile:
