I'm getting ready for the new rims to show up. I picked up a set of those very nice looking Billet Specialties Street Lites that was on Denny's Camaro at DW, 15x15 backs and 15x3.5 front. I currently run the Mickey Thompson S/R's but want to switch to the Sportsman Pros 29x18.50x15 because I cannot get a wide slick in the 29" diameter. The Sportsman Pro is touted to be basically the same compound as their slicks use and I noticed them on a couple of the cars during Drag Week.
So my questions are:
1. Do I run tubes with these or not? I'm getting conflicting opinions from some of the local racers.
2. Do I drill the rims and use screws to hold them in place?
If car specs make a difference, the Marauder weighs in at 4400 with me in it, I have 4.30 gears and the do not know the horsepower yet, but I dropped it off yesterday to get a BigStuff3 put in and dyno'd with the nitrous system. I'll know that in 3-4 weeks.
Thanks in advance.
