drifting on 15x 8 or 15x 9

[redsprinter]

hi guys.

just a quick question . i was wondering if i was running 15x8 front and 15x9 with some sticky rubber like bridgestone G3s on the rear will i still be able to drift on em and still be able to iniate the drift with a cltuch kick or watevea ... and hold the slide ..... and get some smoke on a sayyyy na 4age'd powered sprinter with decent setup.

sorry for the dumb question ... im at work and bored .. =P

spinning 9's with an n/a 4age is a lot of work.

so pretty much no.

195/50s are your friend

but go for turbo

[bahnugget]

you'll probably struggle to spin them very well with an NA 4age, and you definately wont get smoke (unless u like handbraking)

[Gilly]

yes

but with Turbo assistance

need proof??

im using 195 roadstones/regals/maxis on 7.5" rim spun by a 4agze.
its easy to initiate drift but on long corners it dies in the arse. i could prod get away with 185's.
as for smoke, it more like a fart.

who needs smoke anyway... youll jsut have to go quicker work it for the slide etc...

^^^ kicking the clutch at that point is your friend

its not just an N/A thing

i remember watch Beau back at the first drift nationals at QR and he was just kicking like a rented mule all through turn 2 :lol:
