2. wheel width
3. wheel backspace

All Jeg's gives you is bolt pattern and backspace! No wheel diameter or width filter even exists!
This is a good option Mike. Thanks! Ray

Oh oh, the add may have a type-o, I see 2 different back space numbers on the site.
2.55 and 2.25

John lights vary from a little red to a little green. You are right that is why I want a bigger tire. More "green" reaction time and improved ET to boot! Gotta take the "win-win" when you can get them. There aren't many in this sport
By the way I have 15x4 wheels, not 15x4.5. Weld makes a wheel that matches the rear with more backspace. This moves the wheel towards the center of the car by about 1".
