I figured this would get more attention in the drag racing section.

Does anyone have pics(mounted) of Bolted R/T's with a 2.5 backspacing on the front?1 3/4 is standard, but deep 2.5 is an option.

Post 'em if you got em!

PS they don't have to be R/T's, I'm really only interested in how a 2.5 backspacing
looks mounted.

Thanks!

I guess I have the standard bolted RT's but I cut the 1" spacer Bogart welds onto the wheel..I had to grind the front calipers to get the wheels to clear but now the wheels look so much better on the front of the car..

Don't get me wrong the wheels looked fine but I didn't like the spread out look it gave the front of the car..I'll get pictures in the morning and post them up for you..

Man i wish I knew they had that option when i got mine. I already had to grind the **** out of my front calipers to fit welds with no spacer.

I think you can only run the deep backspacing if you have drag brakes.

Any pics would be appreciated!

PM Tim (Hawkn01) He runs the Bogart "aluma lights" set up for the drag brakes, not sure if he has picture though...

From what I've been told, they're basically the same rim without the spacer welded on the back.

Here's pictures of the Aluma Lights on Joe Overton's car:

I think you are correct about the drag brake setup..I was going to install a Aerospace front brake kit then cut the spacers off to get the wheels to fit inside a little better..But I saved the money for now and just took a grinder to the front calipers...

Maybe later I'll still install the brake kit for the weight savings..Here is some pictures to give you a idea how the wheels fit now..

Are those 15x4 or 3.5?
What was the back spacing before you started grind and how thick was the spacer?

The rims are the 15 x 3.5" with the 1 3/4 backspacing..The spacers was 1" wide..
