Bogart Bolted R/T wheels... on the car My car is sunset orange and the bolted R/T's gleam like diamonds. It is by far one of the best mods I've done to the car yet. These wheels are clean cut and finely polished to a mirror finish. They do not rub the calipers, I just bolted them on. The car looks great with the skinny tires in the front and fat tires in the rear. Steve @ SJMManufacturing is the guy to talk to if your looking to buy some bogarts. He is definitely a team player. I had a hundred questions, and changed my mind several times and he helped each time. I would like to put pics for all to see, but I'm not familiar on how to do it. Ron

jay.mik@***.net if he doesn't get back to you. I have alot of storage space on my account.
Once I recieve them, I will load them onto my domain space, then post them here. All you have to do is copy the properties code, and you can post them wherever you want.
Side note. Tomarrow is picture day for my car too. My new Bogarts are kick ***!!

If you want to post these anywhere, go ahead and click the right button on your mouse. Copy the properties code, then use the [img] your picture code [/img] Any now you have your pic on that website. You can also build your own homepage for free on Cardomain. Pretty cool website for free. I have a webpage there, JuicedSS listed on the 1998 Camaro list.

I almost forgot, STEVE IS DA MAN!!! I changed my mind back and forth between the D-10's and the bolted RT's. RT's look killer on a Trans Am, but I opted for the D-10's for my SS. I wanted something that was a little more plain, as my SS does not have all the extra body lines that a Trans Am does.
You cannot go wrong spending the cash on these wheels!! With the extended 1/2" Moroso studs I have on the back, I'm actually LEGAL for NHRA tracks!! My pics should be up by the end of the day. Prepare to drool!

Regarding the studs, your correct. Since the center sections for LS1's are thinner then welds for example, you don't need super long studs to pass tech. It is very close to passing with the stockers (LT1 setups should pass fine with stockers as they are alittle thinner).
A benifit for not using super long studs is that when you put your stock wheels back on..you don't have these SUPER long studs sticking out which make them impossible to hide...not to mention, closed lugs fitting is near impossible.
Thanks for your kind comments guys...I try my best to satisfy everyone
I've attached a picture that shows how long studs needed for welds looks like when you try to use your stock wheels...this stud is the MIN that can be used to pass tech...it's close to a 3 inch stud.

Well I will have some pics up soon. They won't be very fancy. More likely the car just pushed out of the garage. I just blew my motor a half hour ago. No nitrous, no burnout. Just testing it's 60ft time with a Gtech Pro. I decided to run out the whole quartermile, and had a huge smile on my face when I had seen what it ran.....til the oil pressure dropped to zero and it got a death rattle from hell and died. The motor sounds like a coffee can full of rocks now.

Fast,
O wow, that is about the most worst thing to hear. I am so sorry to hear about the engine. Hopefully, you'll be up and running again shortly. Time for a new bottom end build-up

Those are SAAWEEET! I didn't like the pic of the long studs on the stock rim though...that looked like ****! Is there any way to be able to use the Bogarts with legal studs and be able to ruse the stock rims on the street? What ET are the longer studs required? Luckily my local track is barely IHRA legal.

those long studs are needed for welds, not Bogart's. If you like, you can use the stock studs...the LS1's will just barely fail...some tracks may even pass them depending on how strict they are or how close the look...
Just as Jason has done, 1/2 inch longer studs should be fine...that would be completely acceptable with a stock wheel. Not looking anything like those longer studs I posted on the car...those were almost 3 inch long studs.
If you dont want to change out your stockers, you can do that also...it's up to you...your track may or may not give you any problems. Heck, I see guys using welds with their stock studs...(I have no idea how they feel safe with i though as there are barely any threads used with the lugs holding on the rim). If you like, you can used closed ended lugs that will finish off the rim and look just like your stock rims look with closed lugs.
