Thanks for the response. Did you have a shop do the lowering? How much? Any problems with alignment?

Car was lowered by previous owner. Im sure if u search it here or on youtube it can easily be a DIY project in your driveway. No issues with alignment.
Welds are RTS:S-71 Beadlocks. Carlyle Racing has them in stock. They were $1900 shipped.

The Forgestars appear to be a very good value for the 💰. If I may ask what was the price difference between the Welds and the Forgestars? Are those 5 spoke Forgestars on the front? They are coming out with the 5 spoke drag wheels in November or December I heard 👍👍

Thanks for the feedback. Those Welds are Bad *** but too much on my Budweiser Budget 😀

Me again. Do you run those Welds w/ Hoosiers on the street or just to the track? I've heard different opinions on this. Are those 18s on the front? Thanks

Wheels only for 500. Newly powder coated. Is this a fair price. 17x9.5 thanks

In your top pic are your front wheels the f-14 17x8s? Are those CF5 FORGESTARS in the front on second pic? I heard they are coming out with CF5 drag pack in a couple of months. Thanks

I run them in the street and track. The fronts are 17x5 Bogart Racing GT’s. Got caught in the rain a couple of times and its not fun unless you like a challenge. But i dont take the car out in the rain or atleast i try not to. I wouldnt recommend my setup on a daily driver. Depends how daring you are i guess. Lol.

The Forgestar drag setup can be had for around $1000 shipped, for the wheels only. 17x5 fronts and 17x11 rears. They weigh a bit less than Welds in similar sizes.
