Hmm...good point...14 LBS for a 14" rims is heavy!

Hehehe...13.5s...yummy!
I still need to get that bigger throttle body too..maybe thats good for .05-.10 itself And wait till the temps from also Weeee!

Also..I have yet to dyno with an open header...Im still running full exhaust! That could be good for some power also

te-37 come in 13s also...if you are going to use these for drag racing your best bet is probably to use 13s with spacers if needed. As far as bogart rims, they are no where near 14lbs a piece. I think the bogarts are like 7-8lbs. As far as other popular rims to use for drag racing are the lensos and keizers.

I do not know exactly what the reasons are for using certain size rims, but i would figure for someone like you or me, the smaller the better as their would be less rotational mass with smaller rims.

If anyone is selling a set of 13in bogarts....with slicks no bigger than 22x8x13 i am intersted. Also if you have the rear skinnies i would be intersted in that too.

I have a 13 ix 8 nch Bogarts and the 15 x 3 skinnies. Just curious what are you willing to pay? The slicks have been used about 5 times. Its essentially brand new.
