Bogart Road Race Bolted RTs All around Pics (They are Road Race seried Bolted RTs, title is wrong)
Started with 15s on back but couldn't stand the sidwall flex. Ordered some 17x11s from Steve @ SJM, so now have bolted RTs all around. 315-35-17 BFG drag radials on back and 255-50-16 Kumho 712s on front. Nice compromise between handling/straight line traction. Koni SAs on lower perch in front. Stock springs all around.
Steve and Bogart gave me fantastic customer service. Had a screw up by the shop mounting my rears and Steve and Bogart were fantastic in getting me through it.

Looks great:-) Glad we could get the setup to be a reality for you. Even though the tire place threw a ratchet in the equation, we corrected it all for you.
BTW, the title of the thread is incorrect...it says "bogart welded RT's all around pics", for clarification, they are Road Race bolted RT rims :-)
From checking other builds, your the first F-body to have that particular build on their F-body...you and John (wilwaxu) both have something in common now...very unique awesome looking setups.

Corrected the title, thanks Steve. They are Road Race seried Bolted RTs. I wanted rims that could take the stress of cornering. Thanks for all the comments.

I've got a sert of Welded R/T's for the track... They rock. Look killer too. Once the bias ply e.t.s streets that I have on them are shot, I'm going with a radial E.T, or a D/R on them just so I can drive around on them all the time, the bias ply tires get a little annoying after a while. Good choice man.
