Default C7 15" Rear Wheel Coversion... Rims and Tire Size

Happy Holidays All.
I'm hoping that I can get some solid answers to this one.

I'm probably going to have to run full slicks versus my current drag radial setup. So I believe what most people are doing is the 15" rear wheel conversion. I'm currently running a M/T 18" drag radial.
Had some more work done to the car, so in the event I can't get traction on my current set up.....

I'm wondering what size rim and tire will fit under a C7.
If anyone is currently running the 15" wheel conversion can you tell me what rims and tire size your currently running at the track.
This is new territory to me so I'm hoping the seasoned guys already running this set up can chime in.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Call LG. They make the spindles so they'd know the proper wheel size.

Thanks Cap.
That's a good idea.
Also I'm looking for anyone actually running the 15" week kit and what size and make tire they are actually running on the C7.

So essentially looking for guys with real experience as to what's being used out there.
