Champion wheels are a nice wheel, but they are some of the heavier ones available. I guess it depends on how weight conscious you are.

Some of the lighter wheels are the Holeshots. In 15 x 10, the Holelshot Sun Star I have is 11 lbs. The same size in a Weld Alumastar is 12 lbs and the old style M/T ET Drag just a bit over 12 lbs.

Had Centerline Auto Drags all the way around, and now have a brand new set of Centerline Qualifiers.

Ebay Bogart's, Mustang 5.0 leftovers.

gents,

just a few clarifications on a few posts which might be misleading...:

- everything Weld Racing manufactures is built in good old Kansas City, MO (the new snow capital of the USA)... we do on occasion like to eat Chinese food, but that's about as foreign as we get...

- for my fellow Canadian -- you might want to check out the Weld Racing website (www.weldracing.com) to find out which company manufactures the American Racing Trackstar... you guessed it... it's all those Americans working at Weld Racing, eating Chinese food

- as to the original post -- we have lots of customers running RT-S wheels in a number of different categories, with great success. As the RT-S wheels are are available in multiple diameters, a number of racers are running a 15" rear and a 17" front, allowing them to not only fill the (front) wheelwell a little better, but accomodate the larger brake packages available on today's vehicles.

I run Weld AlumaStars and like them, but your post explains why I want to make another pass in about 30 minutes.

Prior to the sale of Weld a couple years ago, American Racing drag wheels were actually made by Sander. After the Weld sale, American Racing drag wheels were then manufactured by Weld Racing. Sander then began selling drag wheels under his company name. Thats why the wheels look basically the same. Either way, very nice looking and lightweight wheels.
