Hey Pro, don't know what price you got on those rims but Wells Performance in Jacksonville Fl has the draglite, prostar and rodlite's for about $156 including shipping. You can get a quote from them at 888-34-WELLS. They advertise in M&FF.
Did Summit tell you the real reason Welds are long lead time? Sad to report but I recall reading last month that Weld went under.
Thanks for the heads up. Yeah, Weld was bought out by American Racing so I guess there are problems getting the product out now I guess.

What's wrong with the rims you're runnin now? Just tired of 'em?
I like the weld look but yours looks more unique/better. To many cars at the track with welds I guess.
BTW, saw an S197 today with new Cragger SS's. Looked GOOOOOD!

Yes the bullits are too heavy. Dime, those wheels are ALOT $$$ more than the Welds, I think I have a line on a used set of skinnies w/ tires in Waldorf. Lookin into it.

I like em pro....And isnt weight alot more when its spinning ? So lighter wheels make a pretty big difference, right ?

I say if the funds are right, go for it. They look good. I'd like to see a photoshop of your car with those, i bet it'll look good.
