Thumbs up 410s and wheels

If Your Running A 410 Gear. What Is Absolutly The Best Wheel And Tire Size You Can Run That Will Optimize The Gear For Quarter mile Times? I Would Love To Use Welds But all They Carry Are 15s So Any Suggestions? And If I Decide To Stick With Stock 16 Size are They Any Wheel Makers Out There That Make 16s Really Lite?

I run 17" American Racing Torque Trust II's on mine and they are fine, not oo heavy because of the two peice aluminium design. but i dont think the size is Extremly important unless you are rolling 20" or above. Unless this is a Strickly strip car, i wouldnt worry too much about it. i highly doubt you will feel any difference between 15" and 18"

the lighter the wheel, the faster your car. so i'd say the factory 16's. i have 17" bullits for daily driving and some drag radials mounted on my factory 16's for when i go out to the track.
