Huge tires, I'm sure you would spend a lot of money on tire shine haha, that car needs some care, wash, wax, etc or is it just for track?

Bitch looks good. Get some rear shots. How did the 28x13.5s fit? I was going to go with 28x12.5 next time around, but maybe I will go 13.5 if they fit decent.

From what I have read from other peoples experiances with the 325-50-15 drag radials , I had to do the same cutting to get them on mainly on the bump stop pad.

I will try to put up some pics later of it from the rear it looks bad ***.

nice. I have some 28 x 12.5 - 15's on my 3rd gen. They look mean

I have the Moser 9" but its not narrowed, just bolt in. I had to do some banging to get some ET Drags fit in the past, and I had to do NO further adjustments to get these to fit!

Those look familiar.... Very nice...I just broke a front welded r/t and Bogart is looking at a redesign to make them fronts a bit stronger...It broke at the seam between the outer rim and the center on the back side of the wheel...

Yeah, I had heard about problems after I bought them but I think my wheels may have been reinforced to prevent that. Because the frount have a think plate on the back side that looks like an add-on and they are heavier than the back wheels. I guess I will find out soon enough. Is Bogart going to stand behind the wheels?

The weak spot seems to be the seam between the outer/inner wheel on the inside...I looked at the Billet Specialties Wheels and they are fully welded all the way around at the same area that the Bogarts are not, or dont appear to be...Seems to me that that is the fix, but I dont know...We'll see what Bogart does to help me if anything...At over $300/wheel they better do something...
