Aluminum "steel looking" wheels by Bogart.

[fullmetaljacket]

Yeah, if you haven't heard, Hemi-its broke the news to me first a few weeks back on these pretty darn good looking aluminum "Steelies" that will get you closer to doing wheelies.
I spoke with Bogart racing wheels and they were very helpful in the information camp.
A 15" X 4" will set you back $500 and small change a piece but will will jolt you forward weighing 14lbs each. They are going to shave another 2 lbs off each wheel to bring 'em down to 12 lbs each.
I think they are well worth it especially if you are trying to cheat neat in the heat of battle.

F.A.S.T and Pure stock ladies and gents, are y'all listening?

Bogart will make 'em in any size and make. So bring out your magnets when ever you are in the lanes with one of those innocent looking Bowties wearing heavy "looking" steel wheels. LOL.

I had a set of this type of wheel made by Circle Wheels in California. They are 17x8 and 17x9 and accept a dog dish hubcap. These are not on one of my Mopars but on a Chevy Caprice. They are nice and light and very sturdy. They also made some 18's for me that accept 49 Chevy dog dish caps for another car of mine. Quality is top notch, though pricing was a bit more than the Bogart wheel. I only mention these if someone was looking for a wheel size greater than 15 inch.

I believe they've been out of business for a few years.....
I wanted to order some from them.

Are you sure Bogart is out of business or have they seized production of the Steelies Dans in particular?
I have a pair of 15" X 4"s on the front of my ride.

Websites for Circle and Bogart are still up. (for whatever that's worth), and Bogart still shows Steelie Dan's. Not $500 any more.

 

[biomedtechguy]

have they seized production

No, that was Che in Venezuela...

If anyone goes there or passes through, IIRC there's some "touristy" restaurants and so on that represent the German and Czech immigrant history. If you like sausages, go hungry and leave happy!

Six hundred and change , for a 15x4. $700 for a 15x8, or 15x10.

Steely Dan - Bogart Custom Wheels

Steely Dan is a weird name for a wheel.

Steely Dan is a weird name for a wheel.

It sure is a weird name, but we remember it well so I guess it works. Plus, someone there must be deep into music.
I've been advocating for such a wheel for many years now and no-one wanted to touch it, so I'm glad that this company went the full stretch. There are some minute details that could have been added, but it still sells the card of covert operations.

Steely Dan is a weird name for a wheel.

Especially since the band got their name from the steam powered dildo that William S. Burrough’s mentioned in his novel 'Naked Lunch'.

I guess the sneakiness of the wheel is really putting' it to them at the street bursts. LOL.
I've had Moparites fooled while running' them, especially in the dark.

Here they are in their true form. Stock steel wheels that happen to be Aluminum.
