Looks like you can use a so called "truewidebody" for that. Whatever that means.

RU using a SR to turn those? because those rim aren't wide enough. Maybe a 18X100.lol

thats retarded. with a 0 offset like half the rim would be in the trunk and half outside of the car. You would need like a triple stack widebody with a fender flare on top.

A serious answer...ugh....

Goodyear Race Tires || Eagle® Dragway Special® (http://www.racegoodyear.com/tires/)

They can custom make anything. They have these two sizes so I'm sure they can make the dragways in 18 or make the Radials in 16.

Goodyear Eagle Dragway 33.5x17-16
Eagle Radial Sports Car 28.5x14.5-18

18s in that width are not going to be made, they do have them in 14, 15, 16, and 17. No 18. Tires using those widths are also offered in half sized like 17.5, 18.5, 19.5, 20.5 etc for commercial applications by Michelin. Again, no 18. So closest is 17.5 or 18.5 that is offered without custom ordering. The width here is not the problem.

/end stupid thread

Damn son you gots lots of monies to throw around if you're buying a $15,000 motor (That doesn't come with a harness or PDM no less).... for an s-chassis, lol

But in a serious note. I have wondered the the same thing.
CCW actually makes all their rims up to 16'' in width I believe.

How fucking stupid are people here???

16" is the width of the rim.

Tire section width is measured in millimeters.

Convert 16" to millimeters then you have the section width tire that you are looking for.

You are not going to find anything though so you are going to have to find the "best" fit.

You'll likely still not find anything close enough in street tires though and will have to use non-DOT race slicks.

:duh:

I could answer this question for myself using nothing but the 1010 tires tire size calculator and spending 10 mins on tire rack and DTD's websites...

If you know what you are looking for then why don't you go look for your damned self instead of asking others to hand you your answer on a silver platter??? Wasting others time is highly frowned upon here, get used to the results if you wish to continue posting dumbass lazy shit...
