How short is just right for an 8.8?
« on: June 12, 2024, 04:41:46 PM »
I've hit a wall in my swap, I think I am thinking too hard on this, I'm looking to run 15x8 wheels with an 8.8 with a Trakloc LSD... is there any insight on how short I should go?  :)

The wheel does not matter. What size tire? What trans?

I'd be looking to run either a 235/60/15 or a 235/50/15 (I'd prefer the 50 but its not a big deal), and I have a T-5 out of a Camaro, I can't recall the year though.

I'd buy wheels, mock up and measure, personally.
