I do not drive my car daily, but would not be afraid to do so on my Bogarts.

I drive with welds draglites on my daily driver and have never had a problem. just 2 weeks ago a guy I know had a front bogart fall apart on him while driving down there road. center section broken right off the rim. I would buy bogarts in a second they are defintly a nice wheel, but after hearing that happened I would defintly not drive on them daily.

We do not list pricing to hide them from customers. They are not listed for the simple fact depending on how we build the wheels, prices change.

We don't build a one size fits all wheel. This is why we suggest to e-mail us with the link below and comment on your requirments. There are certain things that are required to be filled out...this insures we know what we are looking at and how to build them.

Prices, depending on what you are looking at will can seem high or low. If you're comparing them to high-end wheels like a weld alumastar, then ours will be right in line..actually less expensive in many cases...compare them to an economy built wheel like a prostar or draglite, then prices may seem high...BUT you get what you pay for. Wheels make a car...don't discount wheels if you care about weight savings as well as appearance.

Click the e-mail link below and fill out our form if you'd like a quote for your application.

Thanks for your interest.

Steve
