Bogarts or Welds RT-S?
Im trying to decide between the Bogarts RR-10 or the Welds RT-S. My car is lowered 1" so I know the Welds require a BMR lower control arm to clear it. I dont think the Bogarst have that issue.The Welds seem to be the cheaper way out but I wanted to know the weight on both wheels to compare. I know theres no bad choice between the two but im still leaning towards the bogarts because its a better looking wheel in my opinion but I would like to know what you guys think. Thanks.

I wanted Bogart but they're not recommended for a daily driver so I went with the 17's Weld RTS series. I'm not lowered but I ordered the BMR LCA's anyway. Hoosiers up front. 315 Mickey Thompsons in the rear.

As was mentioned before, You can't go wrong with either one... Personally, I went with the Weld's... Love em... my car is lowered, and I did put the adjustable LCA's on...

the bogarts in a 16 inch wheel will need the lower control arm clearanced.
you can heat and hammer in the clearance or you can cut out the rubbing section. |

I like them both but I'd prefer the Welds. That wheel just screams musclecar.

Bogarts all the way. The Welds just look odd...and they don't fit without a big F'in hammer or a torch.

Wait, we actually agree on something! Shit, Now I know the end of the world is coming. The Bogarts do look like a much better built wheel but thats just my opinion. I've had my share of Bogarts and wouldn't think twice about another wheel. I'm sorry I don't have the weight handy but is it floating around this site somewhere. Bogarts for the win! |
