I would look in the gallery on LS1 tech for general drag wheels.

... we have a drag wheel gallery specifically for our Bogart wheels which are the lightest direct fit wheels for you car. The link is listed below my signature.

wow those look so legit.... whats the backspacing on those, or better yet do you have the part numbers? What did you have to do to make those fit.

15x10" rears with a 7.5" BS
LOTS of caliper grinding.

15x3.5" fronts with 1.75" BS
5/8 spacer required to avoid caliper grinding.
