Keiser wheels, they are lighter than bogarts and lenso.

offset is friendly ont he 10.2" brakes too... i.e. no spacers.

Of course, these are the skinnies for the rear... Same wheels are on the front...just wider.

I too would like to know where they Lenso's aren't allowed.

Always trying to keep the budget racer down.

Where did you guys get your Bogards dragon flys?
How much did you guys pay for the fronts only 13's?
What do the Bogards weigh?
What do the lenzo's weigh?

I was told that the Lenso wheels were not legal because they didn't have the proper govt. certification. I heard that there were enough bad product lawsuits to bankrupt Lenso. I don't know that for a fact, just what a big name slick/wheel shop told me. They also said that a lot of pro racers refuse to stage up against a Lenso wheel car because of the danger of them splitting a wheel and coming into their lane. That was enough to make me switch to Bogart from Lenso. Like I said, I don't have any first hand knowledge of this, just what I was told.
