Default wheel choice

Wheels and tires will be my first major mod. I need a better tire on the rear so why not get some weight savings as well.

So, I have run just about all the choices but I always end up with the drag look.

Looking at billet specialties street lights with bigs and littles and race star by Greg weld.

The differences are subtle in appearance but I have run neither of these brands of wheels.

Both companies offer the BS I want so I can run a 10" wheel on the rear.

Any feedback from anyone who has experience with these wheels...please post away.

Thanks

I am leaning towards the race stars. Would like to them both up close and personal.

dont forget that S197 has 17" front runners, makes them look at LOT better...

i actually dont think the BS wheels lookt too bad, but you cant beat the price on the RS wheels IMHO

Actually both wheels are 15". I'm not a fan of the 17' front runners.
