That guy "Mike" I think his name is, that used to work for Boyd Coddington.(American Hot Rod) He has his own wheel company and was making a similar wheel a few years ago. Someone posted about it on here.

Too bad they don't make a 14 inch for the stock appearing racers argue

I'd rather have their D10s like come on the new Drag Paks.

Actually, I'd rather have the whole Drag Pak. grin

EDIT: Somebody at Bogart ought to re-think the name "Steely Dan" for those wheels. Yeah, it was the name of Fagan & Becker's famous band, but those guys got the name from some book where "Steely Dan" was the name a character in the book called their vibrator (yeah, as in "sex toy"). whistling

I like them. They do seem kind of expensive, but folks will eat them up.

I won't be one of those folks, but somebody will.

I figured they were for the FAST racers since the wheels are "stock appearing". But I didn't realize that the rules were specific about wheel diameter as well. Trying to figure out who/what the marketing target is!

If the car was not available with 15s you have to run 14s,but check their rules as I'm not even close scope

Here are the rules, but it wouldn't surprise me if there are OEM exceptions. Yea, some had optional 15" rims. Plus, there is the note "Please call for clarification."
