Default Anyone using Bogart rims?
Thinking about 16" R/T's (with beadlock) for the track with ET streets. For those that do have them, how do you like 'em?

I believe the beadlock is for dirt track racing. If your looking for a Drag Race setup, go for a set of 15" rims. They are designed to clear our cailpers. http://www.sjmmanufacturing.homestead.com/

Their 15" will clear our calipers? Cool! That's the main reason I was going with 16's - didn't want to be grinding on $hit. Car see's only occasional track use.

Just a heads up.. if you don't have your stock rotors, you still might have to grind on the fronts. I'm running Rototech drilled/slotted rotors and had to do some grinding.

WicketMike,

That was in reference to the "Beadlock" comment.

They are designed for Racing, including (mostly) straight line stuff

Bill,

I haven't received a PM. Since I don't check the boards as often an email or phone call is best.

You can reach me at sjmmanufacturing@verizon.net or z28freak@hotmail.com or 412 739-8402

Thanks,

Steve
