Looks fantastic.

Pictures speak 1000 words. In my opinion this is a prime example of why there is no comparison appearance wise when considering other manufacture's drag rims. Considering rims are usually what "finishes" off a cars appearance...if this is an important area for you, then Bogart rims should be a first consideration.

For the small amount of additional cost, while being the lightest rims on the market in its class, and being the best show looking rim, in my opinion, Bogarts are the only choice in my book. If I didn't feel so strongly about them, I wouldn't have been working with them creating setups that work with our F-body cars over the years.

In person, these rims look even look better:-).

Just for some clarifications, the rims are made to be a direct bolt-n-go. Variances come into play due to GM's tolorances. Since the calipers are cast and float, each one is not created equal. This was the case with Mikes one caliper. Other variences which come into play are brake pad and rotor thickness's.

Most people don't do anything to have the rims fit, some have to do a quick clean up with caliper flashing etc on a rotor or two. Do not mis-understand the term "clean-up" as there is NO MAJOR GRINDING ISSUES, usually this can be resolved with a HAND FILE. Our rims are made to have the largest clearance available. If one has to touch a spot up regarding to caliper flashing, most likely it would be worse with any other drag manufactures rims.
