I'm torn between going a full all out skinny or running a 17x7 front Bogart rr10 and putting a 255/55/17 pirelli scorpion tire on there and daily drive my bogarts. Will it be safe to run down the strip with a combo of 17x7 and 17x10 rear with a m&h 325/45/17

I would not daily-drive Bogarts unless they specifically build them for street driving. The issue is well know about these wheels splitting with prolonged street driving.

Unfortunately, yes, that is the same conclusion that I came to also after doing some research. Street driving on the "regular" Bogart race wheels is a bad idea. They're too soft and are easily damaged. However, I believe that Rich can and will make a custom set for you with thicker barrels that is more suitable for street driving. Of course....that's for an extra fee. Jamie (Supercharged SS) just sold a set of them not to long ago!!!

No street driving it is then just didn't want to have to switch out tires every single time I went to the track lol.

So I just picked up a set of dark star fronts from a forum member. Do they need some kind of special lug's or something? I thought I remember reading that.

Yeah, I believe they run a "shank-style" lug. Race Star Industries sells them in our size. Or, contact forum member "beefcake", he can hook you up!!!
