are these the only sizes on sale? I am needing 15x10's in either the Champions or Billets with no beadlocks. Also do you think either wheel would fit with my grinded stock brakes (for Welds).I rather not pay more for the ls1 brake Billets if i chose to go that route. I rather have the Champions but nobody can tell me how they fit my grinded brakes???

Neither wheel will fit stock brakes. Only the more expensive Billet wheel. It has a hoop designed for the LS1 brakes.

What about LT1 brakes? Man I really don't want to have to buy drag brakes to fit the Champions! Next year I will get drag brakes.

I've seen one car with them, they are different, but I don't think they look as good as some higher end wheels..Weld's...Bogarts...Billet Specialties Comp Wheels..ect.

I wish I had pics on a car.

Someone buy me a set and I'll get pics up ASAP. How's that for a solution?

is the strength compromised any when cutting the metal from in front and behind the strut tower like the pic above? or is it going to be replaced when turbo piping is done?

No once the front bar is there with a couple other small "support" bars it will actually be stronger than stock..

If someone wants to buy my bogarts for 1500 I'd buy the champion wheels.

What size tire are those that are on the above pictured car? Those look like a 31 inch tire if I didn't know any better

Intresting! They look taller then that. I'm planning on going to a 29x10.5S tire and was going to try to pull the tires in an inch from where my bogarts/factory width 12 bolt put them, so that I wouldn't have to do what you did with the 1/4. Looks like I might have to anyway.

Car's going to get a full 36 inch tub anyway so I guess it's a mute point. Gonna be a real pita for the body guy though
