Contact Gforce engineering, a vendor on here. Chris may be back in the states this week, he has been in Australia visiting his distributors down under. Casey, in sales, should be back in tomorrow also. Their parts come with a lifetime warranty! You can't go wrong there! See the link in my signature below.

Hopefully in the next few weeks. Could have went to track yesterday but had to work this weekend. Currently working on the tune and then a little spray action later!

Thanks! I was looking at Bogarts too, decided on the Welds so I can drive to and from track and a few shows without worrying about bending a rim.

They look beautiful...I've been debating the 275/50/17 and the 325/45/17 for my RTS wheels...I think you helped me make up my mind.

They do fit, but depending on what width you decide to go with in front, you may not be able to run the stock front brake pads with the roller skate weights integral to them...either cut those off or go with aftermarket pads if necessary...but the wheels are designed for the cars.

To run the 10" rear wheel, Weld recommends a specific BMR lower control arm (there is an adjustable and non-adjustable version) and you have to zip tie the e-brake cable away from the wheel.

Thanks man!

I run the BMR adjustable lower control arms. Also running aftermarket pads on the front. So far so good!

I hope I have enough gear (4.11) to turn these big tires without issues or slower times at the track!

Will you get to the track already. How can I live vicariously through you if you aren't running that beast?
