Going from 25" to 22.5" tires frontrunners

Hi racers,I am thinking of going from 25"tires with 14x6"rims to 22.5"tires on 15x4"rims. My question is the rake will the car act different.We run 1/8 mile arould 6.40s , a Duster with 511/440 I would hate to buy them thin the steering be way off at the big end.Did anyone do close to this?Its to make more room for headers.Right now I have 29.5x10"on back and 25"x6 with the T-bars set low so it has alot of rake now.If I set the T-bars any higher its all over the bigend and hard to drive.~~ Bentwheel43

I really can't say.. Did you have the alinment checked after changing the t-bars ? I went the other way, went from 24in to 27.5 and lowered the t-bars to get the required front end travel I needed and it didn't change the way the car drove at all. 6.20s in the 1/8

C9Thats gonna look goofy. Can you try some Proparts headers?

I have the moog offset bushings about $53 they helped let me lower the front,it drives good.The small tires mite help on reaction time.Maybe~~~

It does I treid 135x15 SR on my old Duster when I ran S/ST on the 4 tenths tree years ago, the shorter tires definetly helped
