Default Welds weight

Weld Pro Star 15X10 - How much do they weigh?
Also the 15X3.5?????

I know the 15X8 weigh 13, but what about X10????
Cant seem to find this info

Im thinking of going with 15X10 back 15X3.5 front and ET Drag
Have a built 4L60 with Yank PY3400E on its way and a little over 600RWTQ

Rear end is stock except I have an Auburn posi

Also rear is dropped about 1 1/2" and I am thinking of just putting stock springs back in there...

Any opinions? I would like to cut some 1.5,1.6 60'

Thanks

~10 front, ~14 rears, add spacers or a heck of alot of grinding your looking at ~10.5 fronts and 14.5 rears.

Bogarts are the lightest, avg direct fit LS1 style, fronts ~9, rears~11 LT1 style will be ~.5 lbs lighter per/wheel.

Run the prostar and it's like your adding leaving ~ 50 lbs of converted static weight on your car in comparison to running the Bogarts. That should be worth it's weight in gold.

Hope this helps,

Steve

thanks for the info steve, i really appreciate the quality i see, hear, and read about the bogarts but at 400+ per wheel they are way out of my price range. Even if they were 300/ea i think that would be too much, I will not be using them much either, maybe twice a month max just to go to the track...
