Default 315/60/15 M/T on 15x10 w/6.5BS, Is Bogart the only Option?

I am looking to put together a rear tire/wheel setup to use on my RST and I-SS. I already have a set of M/T 315/60/15 drag radials. But I am in need of a set of 15x10 6.5"BS 6x5 1/2" rims that will clear the 13.25" O/D drums on the trucks. Seems like Bogart is the only option available. Anyone know of a off the shelf wheel that will work.

If you have drums it's easy. With disk 6.5 bs is hard to fit without custom wheel.

The RST has a built 346 with Warhawk Heads Pro-Flo intake Diamond pistons, eagle rods, 234 231 .595 cam. Finishing up the turbo setup now most likey it will be a TC78 @15psi. Should be good for 700rwhp.

The I-SS has a 383 and a 2.3L Whipple w/A2WIC setup in the works. Should be around 550-600rwhp.

Just went down this road.. Go Bogart. I think you may need more than a 6.5 bs with the 315 depending on if you have a drop on the truck.

What size tire and backspacing are you running? The I-SS is at stock 2wd height right now. I know the I-SS sits a little lower than a regular SS also. But I wont be lowering the I-SS.

The RST pickup I have is the stock height from Regency which was 1.3/3. I wont be lowering it any farther either.

I couldnt find anything eaither when I was looking, I ended up just doing a little grinding and running a 15x8 wheel with that same tire. It ended up working fairly good I just drop the air psi to 15 when I race and it still puts down a good tire patch.
