Seems like all the 2wd trucks putting down great ets are running Bogarts and skinnies up front. Been reading and 1 lb of rotational mass equals 4-10 lbs according to different sources. A buddy of mine is waiting on wheels and just trying to see what can be expected. We calculated a 146 lb drop going from 20" wheels with drag radials to bogarts front and back.

 

i didnt feel a difference...but the traction was better being able to go with 15" tires.

 

If I'm not mistaken you use rear only? I would think the skinny and light tires up front would do some good. It would be great if someone had before and after bogart with complete set.

 

A friend put light wheels and skinnies on and no other change. DA difference was about 20 ft difference. Everything else was the same and he picked up .2 on et and about 2.5 mph. 1 lb of rotational mass is equal to 4 lbs of dead weight. If you can reduce wheel and tire weight by 50 lbs total it would be equivalent to removing 200 lbs from the truck.

 

I just converted my truck to five-lug. NOT MOSER, I DID. I went from JG 20's to 17X4.5 and 17X10 racelite's. Dropped almost 160lbs from JG Wheels. DR's on the street I can pull front wheels about 2 inch's. Haven't been to a track yet.....15's are just to small and the JG trucks run the 13" rotors up front.

 

LMFAOROFLHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH@PULLINGFRONTWHEE LSTWOINCHESONTHESTREET!

sorry, that wasnt very polite...but someone had to do it.

 

How much do Bogarts with tires typically weigh?

 

^^^ LMAO

 

I dropped .3 with going to bogarts front and rear over my 18's on front and 16 and hoosiers on back of my lightning

 

i wish i saw the same gains you guys got! im happy with the better traction that the 15" tire world has to offer.

anyone know where i can get some colorado spare wheels to make some front runners?
