What is the cheapest drag wheel for 2005+ Mustang?
I dont feel like spending 900 dlls in Bogarts only for the rear to be used every now and then, so I'm trying to find the cheapest dragwheels out there for the 05+ GT ? any ideas? I dont care of the finish or design at all ...
I'm thinking in 15"wheels 10" wide.
Thanks

I just use 16" Mustang V6 replica wheels. They are cheap and they will accomodate a 27x10.5x16 Mickey Thompson drag tire that can handle every bit of the 450 RWHP I could throw at it without even chirping. You can find them new for about $100 at places like Home - Discount Tire Direct

its goin to be very hard to find a 15" wheel for our cars...I went through this last year....still not any better. 5twenty said it best. I run a 17" wheel to match my 18"fronts and works very well at the track. I dont think any of the wheels from Summit you posted will fit. Its the caliper thats the problem. I ordered a 15" wheel from them and was able to send it back as long as you dont scratch it. the problem is when you tighten the rim,it hits against the face of the caliper. Now you can put a spacer between there but then the wheel will stick out If you dont mind them sticking out for track use only then go for it

That's the one. You can put a 10.5" Mickey Thompson drag tire on that. It's a fantastic tire that can take every bit of 500+ HP and a lot more. They don't even chirp at launch.
