Bogart Welded R/T's (Pics) Got the rims tonight and they look incredible. Thanks Steve!!! They weigh in at about 10.5lbs a piece so it has to be a hell of a lot less that a stock WS6 rim 
Here are a few pictures since when I was looking for rims it appeared that no one had these on their cars (or very few people that do not own cameras
) I can't wait to get the tires mounted and put on the car.

I'm one of thosue guys that have those rims and no camera... I'll have ot get my buddy to click off a couple pic's of my car when I finally get off to the track this year. Personally, I think that they look better than the bolted version... and got to be easier to clean. Congrats!

but how strong are they. i dont go on crazy road courses or anything. but i dont want to try and take a turn too fast or too hard and have a wheel break. that would suck.

I figured they would be easier to clean too...
I assume they are pretty stout rims even though they aren't bolted. They are all in the same family of rims from Bogart anyway. I could be wrong on that though. You don't do any road courses on these drag rims that is for sure

Show me a car that has drag rims on it that will even go around a road course... nad I'll show you a drag car that doesn't run too good at the drag strip..... enough said. They are purpose intended rims... and are plenty strong for that, the intended purpose. Yes, I do street drive mine, and have no problems... but when they are on teh car, the front sway bar is off, etc. etc etc and the car won't corner that way anyway, so I don't even try.
