Default My new track wheels

I bought them already made from a friend. They are eagle rims he had sent to have narrowed from 17x8 to 17x4.5 and bought M&H front runner 26" which i will be swapping to 28" front runner soon...

Here is a pic of my wheels on his truck.

Well with just the front runner i will be saving 30lbs off the front end which IMO is alot when it comes to drag racing and weight transfer. I would say atleast .1th if not more but .1th is hard to come by when you hit a wall when it comes to E/T

Yeah matt's truck had potential for some good E/T he was going to spray a 300 shot on a 370 built for nitrous. It was sad when it burned down

should be 11's N/A but as for E/T on nitrous i dont want to say until i can atleast see how she does N/A. ..but my goal is 10's on bottle

My next big investment will 4 link. I still want it as a street truck with a 4 link...

The backspacing looks funny to me but I'm sure theyll get the job done
