Hey guys im looking to get some drag wheels but im not sure on which one to pick, so i need your help. Which is the better wheel overall for street/strip use. I like both but just cant make up my mind i know bogart is more expensive but no big deal to me. I will be driving my car to the track and back home. I know i had a buddy that ran bograt d10 wheel but its not for street use and he still did it anyways but he told me he never had a problem with them on the street but i'v heard they can crack if used on street. thanks for you help!

If you say money is no object you really can't go wrong between the two. If you are going to drive on the street I'd go with Billet Specialties. However, you can also get a Street/Strip Bogart wheel thats supposed to be stronger but they only come in the bolted pattern.

Like said, if money is no object go Bogarts. Just get the Street/Strip rims for everyday driving. I just picked up the Weld RT-S fronts and they look awesome. Check them out, it's worth a look!

If all your going to drive is to and from the track...drive carefully and get Bogart's. They are hands down the baddest/lightest drag wheel for our cars IMO.
If you plan to daily drive them- I'd do B/S(well I done Weld RT-S's) or as 223Hawks done- street strip Bogarts- they are a lil heavier- but will handle daily use better.

wow Hawk!! I knew the Billet specialty wheels were hefty...but 3.5 more that a 17" street/strip Bogart....that is a lil suprizing. by my scale- my 15x4 Weld RTS's were 10-11 lbs(with centercap and lugs). I thought I read B/S fronts were ~12. Figured a 17" street bogart would be 15 or so...guess I was wrong.
