Dave

Those look sharp, nice and shiny! I would't mind having those in my garage!! Oh wait.... I do! Boy I would't mind seeing how those would hook behind your new motor.

they're Monocoque's, similar to Bogarts Force 5's, but the center "star" area looks better in my oppinion. the Force 5's were my first choice until i saw these. the price is basically the same, give or take maybe $100.

thanks,
Dave

hey thanks man. and thanks for the oppinions too. and yea, ther're race rims alright. and wheels. too bad for the lack of clarity because these rims are so much better looking in person.

thanks again,
Dave

those are just like the force 5 made by Bogart. same company. awesome rims. very very close to the Alumastars. very popular among the big racers. make sure your backspacing is correct. that looks to be a 5" BS or less. your rear narrowed?

i bought 15x10 bogart aluma-lites with 5" BS - narrowed moser rear. i cant wait for them to come in!

sure..........$1700 out the door with the M/T 15x28x10.5W's and tubes, and M/T ET Fronts, all mounted and balanced. these were for sale for a while on here and hardly anyone responded. i think that was because you had to ask for an e-mailed pic if you were interested though. when i got my pics, i did not expect them to look so damn good. especially since i hadn't really heard of Monocoque before. but after seeing them, i couldn't pass on that price knowing what i'd pay for Bogart's Force 5 wheels that look almost identical, (which are the ones i wanted too), or even Alumastars! not taking anything away from Bogart, don't get me wrong. i love the fronts!!!

gator....the rears are 15x11's with a 6.5 bs. and yes my Moser 9" is narrowed 2"/side. however, i need to sell it to finish paying off the motor in time or my contract is void and i lose my d/p. i'm putting it up on here tomorrow after i take a couple pics of it. never even got to install it. freakin beautiful, and the stoutest rear end i've ever had too. oh well though. this way i can take the 10 bolt out of it, fit the tires under there where i want them and have the rear made to fit in between. i'm minitubing the car anyway, so if they are too tight on the inside, that wont be a problem for long.

thanks for the comp's,
Dave
