Best race/street rims for your money ?
Help me out any pics, prices, and web sites !

Thanks

I want to run a 15x10 in the back with drag radials ? What size tire can I run with no rub ?
 
Depends on what your budget is, what your tastes are...If your looking for a solid set of aluminum wheels, check out Jegs or Summit knock off wheels, they seem to be good quality and the price is on the cheap...As for me, I like the Weld Drag Lites, the ones on my car 🙂
 
I agree with JBreu the Summit knock offs are a good deal.
I like Centerline Convo Pros and the Weld Drag Lites and both are affordable for wheels that are lightweight street/strip wheels, I also used to like the Weld Aluma Stars but Weld changed the design to 2.0 and made the price more than double the original version making them not affordable.

Weld prostars or draglites are your best bet. I know out here my me there are plentiful and cheap. I see them all the time on craigslist. I got a pair of prostars 15x8 (3.5bs) for $100 got another complete set with tires for $600 a few years ago.

The 10 inch rim is hard. I had to run spacers before i changed the rear and controls arms and got the rear perfectly centered.

Im going to be selling a pair of 15x8 with 3.5 bs soon. im on Long Island(ny)
 
My personal favorite rims, under 22", are the 15" Weld Draglites. They look good on an old schools in my opinion.
