Lightweight 16" Drag rims.... Who makes a lightweight 16x8 or 9" wide w/correct backing for '98-'02 Fbods that will not make me have to run whl spacers or grind my calipers? That's 16x8, or 9, correct backspace for NO spacers and NO caliper grinding. Mounting up a pr of 16" M/T ET Radials.... WJ

Aren't the ProStar XP's heavy? Any weight on these in a 16"x8 or 9" Grinding involved? I refuse to do that.... Anyone running 16" Bogart's for rear track tires? Links to the 16" Bogart's, please. Thanks for the help, guys....WJ

Unless you have to run a 16 inch drag rim for some odd reason...don't use them. It will be heavier, more expensive as well as traction will suffer.
If the only reason is that you currently have the 16 inch tires...sell them, pick up new 15" tires. It is less expensive in the long run to purchase new tires and have an overall better setup in the end.
