125 a rim for weld drag rims... www.summitracing.com find the pro-stars, not the XP's, they are more. I dont see how $125 a rim is VERY expensive.

Where do you see $125 for a draglite rim?? They run around $215+

[Roy]

ur both wrong

$148 for draglites

and prostars are 157

not sure on the backspacing for those rims.

Yup, the 10.5 wide tire looks like the way to go.

As for the rims... to my knowledge the XP's allow for larger caliper clearence so that is why they are more expensive. They are specifically made for f body's and many other car's

As for torque arm, it's on the to do list. My local shop has one that will extend from the rear axle and no longer connect to the tranny. Just before the tranny it extends outward to the edges of the car and is welded in.

Kinda tough to describe, but I'd get pic's first

thats how the BMR one is. i have a spohn that attaches to the body, it goes into the Gload brace holes, and it has a dsl built in.

the XPs arent any lighter than stock rims i believe. I have convorpos. no grinding needed and they dont look as horrible as people portray.
