Definitely nice looking, but I'm only getting $400 for my wheels so I need something I can find a set of for about $400.

Weld makes good quality, low cost and light drag wheels http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10001_10002_746346_-1_36673 and you can get them with custom back space too.

Yes, what is the best size for our cars? What, if any, modifications are needed to fit the wheels?

I went with some 17x9 Bullitts with M&H Racemaster drag radials for now. Greg Weld will have some15's in the correct offests available later this year. Fronts are releasing very soon. Rears will be later this summer. They've got a 6" offset 15" rear coming out in the next few weeks, but that'll stick out a bit.

Lethal Performance has the best deal on the Bogarts, from what I've seen.

No, not enough offset and they look funny and possably wont fit.

Get the rears from Breenspeed.
2 OEM Ford Wheels & 2 Mickey Thompson ET Street Racing Tires

Here is the Brenspeed tire combo. We run this same style! Two factory wheels with a set of cheater slicks. If you want to go fast at the track these tires will put the power to the ground.
$629.99
