Tire and BS on the Bogarts?
I had two different tires on them in these pictures.... One pic I have 325/50 MT Drag Radials and the other I have 28x10.5W ET Drags....

The backspace is custom from Steve at SJM manufacturing. It comes out to like a 7.4" backspace IIRC.... The wheels are 15x9.8 or so..... He says he doesn't do a true 10" wide bogart cause they don't fit right.....

If you call Steve at SJM he will get you hooked up right.. He did spacers for my wheels so i could run drag brakes in back or stock brakes and not have to remachine my wheels...

yeah usually they just say true duals but I'm thinking since it doesn't have turndowns and it comes straight out the flowmaster 40s that is considered "roots style"

Ya those tires hook-up good in the rain lol,
with all the rain were getting my 97 Firebird T-Top leaks, had to park it under the car port instead


Stealthy_2005 - i'm bit confused, you saying mine are similar to 40 series from the outside? btw, I didn't know they were called roots style.
They would most likely drone more if i put turn downs, I'd rather just keep them straight back and add long tips to go all the way back if i go on longer drives.
