I'm sure this is somewhere but I can't find it. I need drag radials on my Bee after Rebuilding the motor that now puts 650ish and 720ish to rear wheels. Can anyone tell me what the max tire size with a drag radial and 15'' wheel and offset ( I want as deep a dish as possible) I can fit on stock rear set up? Also I may add a set of Caltracs let me know if this has an effect on clearance. Thank you all in advance and sorry if this question has been beat to death in the past

Off-set depends on axle width easily measured. For sure M/T 275 pro will fit on 10". We've been 1.38/9.55@142 on them with 3.55 gear and Cal-Tracks.

Don't forget the straightedge to measure from.
