Very interested here too, recently discovered the lack of inexpensive drag wheels that dont look like **** or require messing up the brakes pretty bad

I was going to get convo pro's and just deal with it not looking right and maybe trimming my bumper cover if needed, but it would be great if they make them to fit so I wouldn't have to do that...

Convo Pro's in the correct size w/o grinding would be great.

Yes, on the Warriors that is. They had better get on the ball if they want my business though.

Centerline Convo-Pro's are very light. I believe they are slightly lighter than draglites or pro stars. Some of the other centerline wheels like the telestar are very heavy for a drag wheel.

Centerline could be selling a lot of wheels if they just realized that there is a huge market for correct fitting 4th generation fbody car wheels. I don't know why they didnt have a wheel available 5 or more years ago honestly. Go to any dragstrip on test and tune night and you probably will find the most popular car to be 4th generation fbody's.

i can see this being a very profitable expedition for them if they go thru with this. it will by far be the wheel of choice for the weekend racer.

Yea, I think there's a market for them. Alot of guys don't buy them because of the offsets that they offer.

If I can put street tires on 15x9.5 Convo Pros and drive the car with them on everyday and still have a substantial weight reduction from the factory 16 inch wheels, then this is a no-brainer.

yo the convo pros are a bad *** looking wheel
i personaly like them better the the bogarts and they are light

if centerline were to make some 15x10s with the 7.5 back space then i would whip out the plastic right now

i already have the 15x4s up front and i use them as my regular rims...i really like that convo pros and i was considering getting 15x7.5 and putting the 275s on them but i wouls much rather a bigger wheel...more footprint

i called them to see if they would do a costom set for me but they said no

I had em on my BB chevelle. I loved the quality and of course the style. I have seen them on beaters at the track and they manage to make a shitty looking car look halfway good just cuz of the wheels. LOL. I think we all know centerline will build them and we will come! And then we will race, and then more will come.I await my size wheels guys.
