Pro-Stars!
I'm switching sometime this next year to some 15x3.5/15x10s. Draglites serve their purpose, but after a while become god awful ugly. I ran the Telstars previously and liked them alot, but would still prefer a Pro-Star. I believe the Welds are lighter than Telstars too. can't remember to be 100%.

prostars i think look the best, they take less grinding than others, AND you can't beat them for the price.
i'd go pro-star.
Bogart D-10's have got to be the sickest looking drag wheel on an ls1 camaro though.
it's all money.

If I already have Torque Thrust IIs 17X11 with 7.5" BS, why wouldn't 15X10 Convo Pros with 6.5" BS work? Wouldn't that put the front side of the rim in the same spot as the Torque Thrusts?
What about a 15X10 Telstar with 7.0" BS?

Is your rear springs stock?? as I am really wanting to mount some 325's on my 10's I have massages the fenders and lip is rolled about as smooth as it can get, just wondering if I need to raise the rear back up before I do that. Thx in advance.

stock brakes were made to fit in a 16 inch wheels thats the smallest rim that they made from stock, when you put a 15 inch wheel on there the brakes rub the rims and have to be ground down to clear them.
