#18905, "light 14's for the front with drag radials"
i have a previous thread about light 13's and slicks. after some thought i realized that 13's will not fit over the disc's on the front, and i wouldnt want slicks anyhow because i dont have a lsd. i wouldnt be able to use slicks for the intended use because you have to heat them up good before use and i would be doing a one legger, and end up screwing up traction issues worse off than im at right now. so ive concluded that i need two light/realisticly wide 14's and drag radials to go along with them. ive searched but find anything in posts other than goals of increasing one's bling. and main wheel sites like "wheels.com" just sell sets of four and only carry wheels to increase bling factor can i get some performance minded advice?
i dont have traction "issues" really, id just like to get two of the lightest 14's with our lug pattern, and some good wide drag radials to fit on those wheels. just another extra effort to dip into the 13's on a direct port 75 shot.

bogart . U should be able to find them with a search engine. They are out of santee cali and they make killer rims. The price is probably around 240 a piece. Yet i think the weight is under 11 lbs. Dont quote me on that. I looked them up about a year ago when I had the small clipers on. Late mike

You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.
If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good. If you want it cheap and good, it's not going to be fast. If you want it good and fast, it's not going to be cheap.

i've got falcons on my stock 14's and they get good traction at about 14psi. Ok i know some of my friends r running "Lenso" wheels on the there cars with ET slicks and i can pick them up with my pinky there so light. Does lenso make wheels for us and people running et's already what size tire did u use becuase i have a 2inch drop and i need something that will fit.
