Do they make a wheel that looks like a prostar for our trucks? I am looking for an 18" mainly because I want to run a Nitto drag radial.

I have been looking all over for wheels that look like classic drag car wheels but all I can find is bling bling wheels. Anyone know of a basic drag style wheel?

It'll be hard to find a Pro Star styled wheel because our trucks are 6 lug. There really aren't a lot of choices for us as far as wheels go, but I've seen some from Mickey Thompson and Weld Racing that don't look too bad. Not sure of how much they weigh, though.


Mickey Thompson Classic II


Weld Racing Super Single II

Just realized that you were looking for 18s. The ones that posted aren't available in 18s.

Are you looking to run DR's on the street all the time? If so, have you looked at any of the billet wheels that are out there? Boyd, Intro, etc?

Yea. I want to run Nitto drags all the time. The closest I have found to classic wheels is the Boyds. They cost a bunch though. I wish I could get the Weld Racing Super Single II those are sweet.

The only reason I want 18s is because Nitto doesnt make a tall dr or 16's or 17's would be good.

I found these but the price is steep. If I dont find any others I will prob bite the bullet and get these. Wish MB motoring made these. Boyd is expensive.
