New Drag Wheels

Nice work! I've been wondering what those wheels would look like on a GN. Thanks for sharing!

Some wheels that look good by themselves just don't seem to look right on these cars.
I have not seen another Buick with these wheels (haven't seen any car as far as that goes) and figured I would give them a try. First time I saw the wheels I liked them, they look simular to the Weld Magnum, but about half the price.

Forgot to add, front tire/wheel combo weighs 24 lbs, didn't weight the rears with the tire/tube, but the rear wheels are approximately 16 lbs each.

Here is another pic from a different angle:

Thanks Eric,
About 1-1/2 weeks on the fronts and about 2-1/2 weeks on the rears. I got them from Centerline (and they threw in the lugs for free), but Jegs might have them in stock and could deliver a little quicker. Reason I went through Centerline was I was working with them to see if the wheels would clear the F-body brakes. Centerline mentioned they "might" re-design the hoop on the rear a little to clear the brakes on the F-body. There should be no problems at all fitting over the stock g-body brakes, Wilwood, or Aerospace components.

Sweet! So true about there being a lot of wheels that look good by themselves and/or on other cars but NOT on GNs.
