Will 13x8 Bogarts clear 5th gen brakes?
I was curious as to what my options were for drag wheels. Im not to sure a 13 inch bogart wheel will clear the front brakes of the 5th gen. If not, I may be looking into a set of 15x8's.
Has anyone run with 13/s on a 5th gen?

no those won't clear at all.... I was using my stock wheels on the fourth gen. 15 inchers with MT slicks. I make just over 200whp and hit a 13.7 with a shitty 60ft @2.2 My best 60ft was 1.8 but my run was not as fast. If u make 220whp on your lude and have some slicks I don't see why not? I figure I coulda hit a better number but the season here limits me and I sold my slicks. Thats a realistic goal I think. Good luck

they won't clear. the 5th gen rotor is 11.x" in diameter, and the calipers add more than 2" to that clearance spec.
i haven't heard of anyone running smaller than 15's, though maybe the right 14" wheel may clear.
