What size in the back?
What is the widest drag tires (slicks or street) anyone is running in the back with or without offset trailing arms? Time for me to buy a set and I want the widest I can stuff under. Right now I've got 275/60/15 Hoosier Quick Time DOT's and they pretty well fill up the wheel wells as far as sectional width is concerned. Too much is never enough. Also how do the offset trailing arms look installed anyone with a pic?

Take a look at what room you have left between the tire you have on there and the trailing arm, also look at other areas between the tire and frame and spring bolt and exhaust etc . Probably the biggest your going to be able to run is 295 50 15 but you will have to remove the parking brake braket.

I'd think that using non-OEM wheels, with different off-sets, would help.
It might be easier to determine sizes in "height-by-diameter", as mounted on said wheels, rather than metric aspect/ratio sizes, too.
