Post Details on your Drag Wheel setup

I would like to see what wheels everyone is currently running on their ZL1 for Drag Racing. I am mainly concerned with the rears, but feel free to post the whole setup if you have it. Drag racers only please! If you have pics, throw those up too!


Wheel Make/Model
Wheel Size
Back Space/Offset
Tire Make/Model
Tire Size
ET/MPH
Any other applicable notes

Thanks!

Stock ZL1 black rears (extra set that is swapped at the track), Mickey Thompson 305/35/20 ET Street 2's DOT, perfect fit, look great and dropped my 60 foot without a burnout by 3 tenths, with a good burnout and 20 psi they drop the 60 foot by 4 tenths. Still only getting a 1.9 60 foot tho on an auto. Would love it if Mickey Thompson made the tire in 315 or 325 width!

I have two set ups depending on race gas or pump gas..

Race gas- Hoosier 28X10R17 slicks on bogart rears ( tried running stock fronts but have a hard time controlling the car ) Hoosier 27.5X4.5R17 skinnies on bogart fronts
Pump gas- M/T 305/35R20 DR's on stock rear rims. Stock fronts

18 psi before burnout
Only burnout until it wisps
Hustle to the line

Cuts 1.3's 60' I'm on a 325/50 ET street.

15". Sorry. I thought I put that on the tire size. Off the brake and leaving in full boost should high 1.2's. But we know how "should be" goes. Lol

The 1.3's were leaving off the foot brake at 2k rpm.

Tire pressure 18 psi, 2nd gear burnout for about 3 sec. Usually see good cloud of smoke. Mid 1.7 60ft. My car is a manual. I do the same with the slicks and usually get high 1.5's or low 1.6's
