What track rims to get for SOM

What track rims to get for SOM
My prostar/greg welds, turned into everyday street driving with 275 DR and skinny radials on the front. There polished and look good on SOM, not the lightest but will hold up for street driving. I need something lighter then better for 28x10.5 ETdrags and DS2's to go fast on.
street radials
I dont think all black looks good on SOM, and don't want another set of polished rims, unless I find something I really like? Like D10s or some boragts but haven't really looked into them. SO thinking a black rim with some machining done after? loook evil, but still have some flash to keep up with SOM. I've seen the champion (5?) or whater black/ machined looking 5 spokes, on stangkilers car, and a local has them on there XS black firebird and then look good. Not sure the price and weight on them.
Doesn't look like them make rear magnums or alumstars with 7.5 BS for 15x10s? I dont think I want the RTS 71s. everyone has them now black alum stars on the front look great with them on the rear. I have stange brakes so dont need the super curved spokes like the RTS have. I dont like the way the look form the side too, the high pad style. Looks like some cheap tire rack rim but black.
checking out the other newer welds right now (RT) black and machined. Not sure the weight on them?
weldstr RT (RTS with bolts?)
I think these2 look really good
Vektor RT.

found some pics of the Vektor, I like the way the look, and han't seen them alot. I think the Vitesse would look a little better on my car. But think the RT wheels would not be that light. looks like there street/strip and clear bigger brakes from some of the specs

ya thats what I was looking at the other day on my friends car. anyone know the weight of them to copair to the welds
I dont need a bead loc, its a 400whp cam only junk. but the non beadlock 15x10 are $280 a wheel, thats really cheap. The V series welds are like $480

Rear:
Front:
I love the new Weld RTS wheels, but with their price point at around $250ish in a year or 2 you'll see them everywhere you look. Stand out from the crowd a bit. Holeshot wheels are built to order in any backspacing you want, and several different anodizing colors. You could ask to see if they could anodize the beadlock in SOM. I have a decent hookup from yb where I got mine. Shoot me a text if you want a price.

I would need 15x3.5 around 2 BS
15x10 7.5 BS. not sure if I need BL right now? Im sure I'll grow into them. what color BL? gold???
You know the weight or price on them? I like the front ones you have? The cap5 are a great deal, I get good pricing on the welds but still gona be the most.
thanks for all the help guys

The guy I got them on yb, got them to me at $299 each including shipping. He was cool as hell too. I haven't priced the rears yet but I'm expecting them to be around $399 or so, then add another $75-$100 with a beadlock. They can do beadlocks in other colors. A SOM beadlock would look killer, ask them, maybe they could do a custom color for you! I don't think they have a 15x3.5, mine are 15x4. Maybe because of the style I chose. Maybe a 15x3.5 is available in other styles. You'd have to ask.
I'm getting my rears over the winter and i'm getting beadlocks. Just like you I don't need them right now, but eventually I might. I'm sick of buying stuff twice, lol. Time to get the good stuff the first time.
