before you mess with drag radials, I'd do a bit of work on your driving. with those mods, you should be low-mid 14s on crap tires. adding drag radials to the mix will just make it harder to drive properly

As to your question - no they won't fit. Assuming you're talking about the BGF Comp TA Drag radial that 235 is too wide - 6.5" min rim. They do offer the g-Force TA Drag radial in a 225/50 that will fit. You might wanna check on the weight.

www.jegs.com look under Mickey Thompson ET Drag, they are 22x8 for a 15" wheel. Im pretty sure they fit just fine, i think blubyu2k2 used them a few times and he had them on Millenia wheels as well. I know someone had these on some 15x6.5 wheels.

MT 22x8" slicks will not fit on 15x6" millenia wheels, they are too wide for the wheel. A 235 tire is also too wide for the wheel.

I would go with the widest thing possible that will fit on the 15" wheel. I thought the Millenia wheels were 15x6.5?? anyway...the 225/50 should work great....let me know how what you end up getting because im looking for a similar setup as well. I am probably gonna use some 1993 Infinity J30 15x6.5 (anybody got any clue on how much these weigh??) wheels with prolly a BFG G-force T/A drag radial. I know the Infiniti wheels weigh a hell of a lot less than my 18s....i test fitted a pair of the Infiniti 15s and they work great, traction sucks with street tires but other than that they should be a great track wheel if i get the right drag radial on it.
