I decided to keep the stock brakes all around for a while. It takes no more grinding that a set of Weld Wheels. As far as weight goes thet wheels are heavier than Welds by far. I dont mind that as I wanted a cheap good looking drag wheel. I am in the process of hanging the Burkhart front suspension. When I get it all finished I will post some pics of the car on the ground out side the shop.

Narrowed 3" Per side will need a 4.5" BS for the wheel to be in the stock location. Just a deeper dish.

Mine are 5.5" BS. I wanted the wheel tucked in 1" more than factory since I plan to mini tube the car. Right now I have a 1" Spacer on to keep from having to Mini tub just yet,

Would these cause your car to run a slower time compared to if you had welds on? I'm trying to squeez everything I can out of my car when I get back from afghan.

Bogarts are liter and you don't have to grind... They are a pretty penny although.

Welds new RTS wheel is light and streetable, and you don't have to grind, and they are very affordable.
