I am running Weld Racelite drag wheels... they were expensive, but I couldn't get lenso's at the time.

I'm running 22x8.5x13 Hossier's on 13" ASA rims. They are not wrinker walls but they were also $25 and near new condition. As for the rims, the fit my stock brake but require shaving of the calipers. Oh ya I I have to run ARP Studs with wheel spacers also.


I haven't run them at the track. Just gave them a few heat cycles to see if they were overheated at some point.

22x8x13 M&H Racemasters mounted on Kaizer 7lb drag rims. Going to 23.5's next season. 22's are too small IMO and slip too much off the line. Consistant 1.8 60'
