The first set at first glance looked like weld prostars, but I think they have bogart center caps. Not sure what model though...

The second set are weld draglites...

That 1st set is Bogarts, not Welds. The 2nd set is Weld Draglites. Go with the Bogarts IMO. Less hassle, better fit, the guys at SJM are real helpful, I'm sure they'll poke their head in this thread soon enough.

It is only the most common size for drag rims.. Do a little research before posting sometimes, will help you out a lot.

You have to grind the brakes and use spaces to make a lot of after market drag rims fit.

Wasn't being a dick when I posted it man.. Every question you have asked if you search you will find tons of info on it!

Not sure on who sells Bogarts, google it. Search for "grinding calipers" on here and something along "size spacers" for what spacers to use..

Like ^^^ said you don't need to grind for Bogarts, you paid for it!

with the weld rims you will have to grind the calipers, but if you get the bogarts most of them fit right on with no modifications
