Who makes a drag lite/rim that don't require caliper grinding? Looking for a drag rim such as prostar,welds, etc for front and rear that does not require caliper grinding on my 01 TA. Thanks!

Racestars are the cheapest, but that's because they don't have a direct fit bolt pattern for each car such as Weld, Bogart, and Billet Specialties. Racestars use a oblong "one hole fits all bolt patterns" design. The wheel is centered by an offset washer per application. So the wheel is centered with the washer, instead of the shank, or lug nut itself. I would highly suggest looking into the Weld RTS series. There is quite a bit of information on here in the last couple pages. They are a bolt on direct fit wheel, come in black or polished, are SFI approved, and very streetable, while still being budget friendly.

We can build you a DRAG wheel for your car as you are asking in a 15" configuration using the largest backspace out of any manufacturer on the market. This will tuck your wheel in under the fender area better which gives a better stance in the end. Our wheels are also the lightest direct fit drag wheel on the market.
Keep in mind, just because someone is offering a 15" skinny wheel, that doesn't make it a drag wheel. The idea of drag wheels are to lower rotating mass to increase performance.
If you change your mind and you prefer a street/strip wheel (which is not a drag wheel and does not have the same racing benefits), we can accommodate you with a direct fit street/strip wheel with once again, the largest backspace configuration to set the wheel appropriately under the fender well.
You can choose any P1 wheel from the website and we can fit it!

Here's the gallery with some of our configurations.
