Thinking about buying a drag wheel setup for cruisin the streets next spring, can you post your set up?? As usual, the biggest meats that fit the rear and skinnies up front are what I want. thanks
Drag Race wheel setup - post yours
- Thread starter R1Lello
- Start date
looking good.......if 17 is the smallest for our front we can go to clear the brakes,.......can we do a 17/17 with a nice sized bun in the rear? Again, want to street drive it.......are the Bogarts street legal? I read T/Forged is working on something too.
White is the fastest color!
There are better choices if you just want "the look" for cruising, not to mention that running skinnies up front will result in poor handling and braking.
From Bogarts' website Q&A:
"Why are Bogart Racing Wheels not intended for street use?
Because we manufacture Bogart Racing Wheels for a specific application (racing), we remove as much mass (weight) as possible, while maintaining enough structural integrity to be sure that Bogart Racing Wheels will survive through their intended purpose."

Most of the parts you put on your car are not intended for street use....would I drive on Bogarts to another state no....joy riding HELL YES!! How many people really drive these cars everyday anyways???????????
budget drag setup ..
A few members have used the rear setup, 15x8 5.5 b.s. et street radial 275/60/15, and the front setup is, 15x4 1 3/4 b.s, 27x4.5 goodyear front runner, 2005 mustang gt front brakes, arp wheels studs, 1/2 spacer.
Not sure why some make a big deal about changing the brakes, as you can do it under an hour ! !
I had the Bogarts, awesome wheel .. just wanted to try something diff.

What does your car run with all that POWER?
Right now it just runs around the block ! I was hoping to attend the evo track day, but it was my first anniversary this past weekend.. weather hs been great, so hopfully in the next couple weeks I can get out and make some passes.
I would like to see some Billet Specialties Street Lites on a GT500.. I'm about to save up for my fox and have them for next spring.
Here's a picture of my drag wheels.FRONT 17X5 REAR 15X10
!
Here you go!
Love the look of your set up. Can you please give me the details.
Wheel and tire details?
Prices?
Where to buy?
Thanks,
Cal
once again im sorry for resurrecting a dead thread, but i like the way billet specialties rims look, what would it take to make them work on my 09? 1 inch spacer in the front (15x3.5) and 15x10 rear?
