Not sure what wheels you are referring to but....I had some 16" welds on my 2001 Z28 for a while. They dont look any different on the car verses 15" They are 16x8 5.5RS 4.75BC, but I think you can only get them with the Prostars, not the draglites. I bought them from J*gs online, they do not list it in their catalog. Here is a picture. I had the 15x3.5 up front. Let me know if you need any other information or I can send you some better up close pictures through email.

2) I had no problems at all, when i had them they were the only wheels i had on the car and drove on them everywhere. You should be fine.

They also help out on weight for the track too <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

The XP's are in 17x8 or 17x8.5. I will PM you the web site for information. Also for pictures for the XP's on a car, you may want to do a search. I think "Lane" had them on this car.

ok clear it up, you can get XPs in either 15, 16 or 17s and draglite or prostar.

I used to have Draglite XP's in the back of my car a few years ago...

16x8 5.5 offset
16x9 6.5 offset

Both bolted on and I did not have to grind the calipers. Unfortunately the XP rims weigh about the same as stock rims.

16x8
16x8.5
17x8
17x8.5

No 15" XP series. And as PSJ said, they are heavier wheels than the regular Weld Drag Wheels.

With your aproval mods, I know they are not a sponsor, but I believe Jegs www.jegs.com or Summit www.summitracing.com are the only places that have the selection of these wheels. Hope this is enough information.
