got them through work (discount tire co) directly from holeshot

not for the faint of heart. require significant grinding front and rear and spacers in front. i have spacers in rear just so they sit even but they arent needed. the nice thing is the wheel face is only 1/2" thick and the spacer is 5/16" so the .75" shank lugs go just about all the way to the hub face which takes a ton of stress off the lugs (not like the welds that are really thick and running spacers with the long shanks)

i think the weight and the fact the no one has them makes up for the work to make them fit. plus they look fuggen badass

definately grinding required, but they are cheaper, lighter, and better built than any other wheel on the market so imo its worth it

One thing to consider is that Holeshot makes a 16" drag rim. This car has them with pictures. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...light=holeshot

I think that if you want light 15" drag rims that require no grinding then you need to bite the bullet and buy the Bogarts. Thats what I did. I had a set of Draglites to throw on, but I am not going to take a grinder to my brake calipers for any reason.
