Default Corvette Racing Wheels??? (Need Help)

what are the best racing wheels made for a 98 c-5 pacecar? bogarts? anything else? what size is preferred? can you run a 12" rim on the rear? pics, links, and pricing would be appriciated. my friend has a procharged vette running 11.6's and is on BFG drag radials w/ stock 9.5" pacecar wheels and is having a hard time hooking. he is running for points and would like more consistant times, so we were talking about a lighter rim w/ MT ET Streets. we just need to know what rims to use.

I have been in the Corvette Drag racing seen for 7 yrs now.

Unfortunately you only have one option for a full set of drag package.
Their site is www.ccwheel.com I cannot find the direct link to the drag package.
It contains front skinnies and rears that are I think 11" wide with MT ET Streets or Hooisers I think. The ET Streets are 26 by 11.50 tires.

You will find others have tried and use different combinations but the ccw package is the most popular.
