Brembo and 17" question
Those of you that are running 17" Weld's or Bogarts w/ Brembo brakes for the street or strip.
Is there still enough clearance to add stick on weights in the inside to balance the wheels ? Thanks in advance. |

I was considering Weld's because I wanted to run them on the street a bit.Don't get me wrong I love the Bogarts,lots are saying that the Bogarts are easier to damage on the street than the Weld's.I have Weld's on my Nova with zero issues.And here the roads are not that great to start with.
Thanks for your input.If anybody has more,you know what to do....... |

I have experience with skinny's up front.
Been running 3.5" wide by 28" tall skinny's and 28"x12.5 ET streets on the Nova for 10+years. I don't try to follow a late model sport car at high rate of speed for sure......lol..... |

Bogarts are fine on the street if you are careful. They arent made of paper as some people seem to think and yes on the sticky weights...mine have them and it works fine but you will have to cut the hockey pucks off.
