The Bogan Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Hoosier&tireModel=D.O.T.+Drag+Radial Match up your rim width with a tyre that fits.

100OHP Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 how close is 5.75 to your inner gaurd mate. being gtr i would probably have more room outways???

jas/slo32 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Fairly close you could use a 5.5in backspace rim on a gtr for more clearance. If you weren't far from bundy could trial fit the wheels off my car.
