18 inch drag rims?
Hey everyone, I'm looking to get two rear 18 inch rims for the track. What would be a good size rim? Also is there certain brands I should consider?
Thank you. |

18 Inch Racing Wheels
Quote:
Back space would be 7.2 inches on the 18 and 7.3 on the 17. Hope this helps your search. |

I've been selling a lot of Forgestar F14 wheels, 18x10 sizing. Lightweight, good looking wheels. These work perfectly with the 305/45-18 drag radials on the market.

Nine Ball, I know I will be ordering a set of those in 20s once you get the cores in again. Would be nice to have a drag set of the same rim. For 18s, would it take the same amount of time to get the rims? I told you about the deadline I have there. Automotion is one of the biggest car meets in Wisconsin, and I could use traction! :P

18s are in stock, they are taking about 5 weeks to build at the moment. I have a couple customers with a full set of 20s and matching 18 rears w/ drag radials. Looks pretty cool!

if just track wheels, pick up a set of 18x9.5 c6 zo6 rims or c6 grand sport rims , there offset will work, they will fit the calipers and can p/u and delivered for approx 300 a pair..got mine from bob@ house of wheels in florida

What are you running on the Bogarts? With a dedicated set of track wheels, I was thinking about slicks!

Would C5 z06 rims work? Hard time finding any c6 rims.
