Just bought them new from summit. LMK what you guys think.

I did mod the center caps so they didnt stick out so far.

Man I REALLY like those. I've been eyeing some drag wheels lately. I want a good looking wheel without paying a huge bill on it. I think I've found what I want! They are a nice price. What backspace and offset are they?

How was brake clearance? Any grinding?

im sure you have to grind etc, i wonder how much they weigh? thats very important to me in a drag setup, no point in going with a drag set up if your not cutting on pounds,i know the other summit wheels are junk, those look really good on your car though

I had to check my garage ... I thought it was my car. The combo is very heavy, but if it's for looks and budget, you did good. Very nice looking setup. I ended up taking advantage of Weld rebate last year and went black anodized RT-S's.

These are not a drag wheel. They're great for those who want "the look" but if you're looking for a real drag wheel that will gain you performance and be SFI legal at the track, these are not it.

I don't need a super lightweight wheel. Just something to mount some MEAT to. What would not be SFI legal about the wheels?
