Drag wheels weights
Drag wheels weights This thread is just to gather information about Drag wheels weights only. Not stock wheels with drag tires. So please if you had ever weighted your drag wheels either skinnies or rear wheels list them below:
1. Wheel brand (ex. Bogarts)
2. Wheel name/type (ex. Dragstar) Or (ex. Fluted Star Fronts, Dragstar rears)
3. Front wheel size and weight (ex. 15x3.5, 8lbs)
4. Rear wheel size and weight (ex. 15x10, 10lbs)
If you are running different type of wheels in the front or the back please say so. Same thing goes to running different brands in the front and rear.
Thank you.

I did check that thread before when i searched. The idea of this thread is just drag wheels weights and not a mix of wheels.

Remember guys, our Bogart wheels will vary in weight according to how we build them for the application. So you may see different weights listed due to different built setups.
When you guys are weighing wheels (other brands)..ADD the spacer and whatever else you added in with the weight of the wheel. With our wheels, when we build them, the weights are listed as an assembly for an LS1 for example, we use custom centers, added welded material on the inner centers etc...after all is said and done, we are still much lighter then a prostar for example.
Some state that our wheels are "not that much lighter", consider this, a 10" prostar is only ~ 6-7lbs lighter then a stock wheel. Our LS1 setups are typically 5lbs lighter then a prostar. Not to mention with a prostar, you need longer studs and longer lugs which all add up.
We really are looking at different setups though...a more fair comparison is to the weld alumastars 2's which are very nice wheels...they are part of welds high-end wheel setups.
We can build a front runner down to ~6.75 lbs...when we build them for different setups, weight varies according to what we are doing to the wheel.
