ummm. as long as you don't drive your car on a road, you should be ok with the bogarts. I'm going 2 years strong on some used bogarts. and i've driven on the street a couple times too.

i heard weld racing wheels has changed ownership and during that process, the new owner has decided not to manufacture wheels for imports anymore...

I had bogarts for 2 years. I hated them, they bend so easy just by loading my car on the trailer. You can hear them sweak, so annyoying. I got welds for this year from james innes.

Curious how you managed to bend them loading the car onto the trailer?

I've had pre-owned bogarts for a year now with no issues, maybe 5 street miles on the skinnies and usual pitside off roading and have actually been thinking about getting a set for putting some drag radials /dot slicks on.
