CCW Drag package (w/Hoosier rears instead of M/T ET Streets)

Just my humble opinion.....

Thanks, Mike. I wish to buy only 2 wheels back. What width of these wheels-16*8 or 16*10?
I can on these wheels put tires MT 28*12.5*16? Where to me to buy these wheels?
What cost 2 wheels rear?
In Russia it is very rare car. And your information very much helps.
Excuse me for my English language.

I think there are a couple of different size wheel packages since I bought mine. Mine are 16" rims, 11 1/2" depth ( I think, it's been a while since I bought them).
I will pm you a link to CCW since they are not a site vendor here.

btw, just a thought......
You say you're only looking for the back wheels (& tires). If you are going to do very much serious dragracing on Hoosiers or ET Streets, I would seriously consider buying skinnies for the front. The Z can be a little difficult to hold on the track with these tires on the back and radials on the front. It can be done, of course, but it's easier and safer with front skinnies.
