scott m has a set on efa that are brand new, but the tires are a little too big.


you could probably sell the tires to someone looking for 28's and get some 26's

Wes, those are regular 15x3.5 & 15x8" Draglites. I had to grind the rear calipers and use a 5/16 spacer.

BTW: I too suggest getting Bogarts

Hondakiller,

Bogart drag rims as well as the welds drag rims are NOT meant for daily driving...Although, I cannot recommend one to use them on the street due to legality issues, most people do not have problems using them.

We have had ONE failure from street use out of EVERY bogart F-body sale since I initiated the Bogart program more then a year ago. This is over 100's of guys using them...many use them everyday...

If a rim does fail, we may be able to repair them depending on the damage...this eliminates having to repurchase a new rim.

hope this helps

Steve
