Pictures of bogart drag rims
for you guys whom have been waiting to see pics of these check out the links.

These are the nicest direct fit rims out there with MANY benifits over weld rims including no spacers needed. Stock studs reach ends of hubs unlike welds etc whereas those studs don't even make it to 1/2 of an inch to the hub!! These rims are also light!! LS1 rims are approx 8 lbs lighter then prostars overall. LT1 rims even lighter. These are as streetable as the welds or centerlines are.
Contact us for any questions you may have.

Re: Pictures of bogart drag rims
Will the 16x4's fit on the front of a C5?
What tire is this wheel size made for?

Re: Pictures of bogart drag rims
Those rims look familiar. Was wondering when you guys would get the pics up. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Guys thats my car. Pictures do not do these rims justice. Light, great fit and different from what most people are running. I get compliments on them all the time. Tuck up in the wheel wells nice too. If you've got something better to do than grind your calipers and want 15" wheels this is the way to go. I'm running 26x11.50X15 ET Streets on the back and MT sportsman's on the front. Haven't got any new E.T.'s since taking the drag radials off, but I think the car will hook a little better now. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[chug]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" />

i've been telling everyone whom contacted me regarding these rims how unbelievable they are and that even though they are a few dollars more then welds, they are worth EVERY penny for what benifits you receive from them!!!

Re: Pictures of bogart drag rims
Hi John: What sizes are available? I run a 28x10.5x15 "W" on the rear and clearance may be an issue depending on offset. Nice rims...I could foresee a home here...lol.

Re: Pictures of bogart drag rims
offset is similar to the welds 7.5 inch. If you notice the pics the one tire is a MT 26x15x11.5 and there were no clearancing problems whatsoever. I run a 28 inch hooser on mine and it fits fine with alittle bit of work on the inner fender well just like the welds.
standard sizing is 15x4's and 15x 9.75 If you use the lt1 style rims they are set 1/4 of an inch inward to the fender area vs's the welds setups.
call me or email me for any other specifics or questions regarding these rims. They are unbelievable to say the least and can't really be compared to the quality of the weld rims. I personally speced these out for LT1 and LS1 cars.

Re: Pictures of bogart drag rims
That would depend on which manufacturer's brand tire (and what overall diameter etc) you would like. All tire manufactures will state the min and max width tire on a 4 inch rim.

Re: Pictures of bogart drag rims
I have been asked this time and time again. This was told to us from bogart that as long as you feel comfortable with using welds on the street,then you should feel just as comfortable with using the P1 series on the street. Can they bend? Sure you can bend them. Have people bent welds using them on the street, YES. Can you bend the bogarts the same way YES.
Everyone has to remember these as along with welds and centerline drag series rims are really not meant for the street use. People use them all the time for years without trouble, you just have to be alittle more cautious on very hard turns. Obviously, road racing on curvies is not going to make the rim last as they are not meant for that kind of punishment.

Re: Pictures of bogart drag rims
I'm using them on the street. Granted my car isn't a daily driver but just went to the EFA Chillin and Grillin up near Baltimore, 50+ miles one way no problem. The center piece of the wheel looks pretty stout so I'm going to run them most of the time during the summer. Its nice to have ET Streets on for certain street situations. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[chug]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" />

z28kid,
not asking something on your mind would be the stupid thing to do hehe. THere is never a stupid question when you aren't sure of something. Heck, I learn something new all the time, I surely don't know it all :-).

Have a set of Bogards sitting in a box. I guess I better soon get them puppies out and install on car. The wheels really do look awesome and are very light weight. Cheers.
