This is just a bolt on car. Everything else is stock. Suspension, converter, trans, cat back, full weight etc.

Looser front end or a little more converter and there would be all kinds of daylight under the front tires,I know going up is losing time but sure looks cool.what are you guys opinions , suggestions/thoughts about TPMS on your drag pack setup yes ,no, doesn't matter ,any issues besides cel without them?

Mine were machined in KC by a machinist that Mike uses. He is a Race Star employee. I picked them up from Mike after the machining. They were machined from the 6.00 standard wheel. I originally started with the 6.8 bs wheels but the spokes hit the calipers and I was concerned the 6.00 would have been too close to the fenders. That's how the 6.43 bs wheel came about. As you can see with Prays tires they are very close to touching the fenders on the launch and his car is stock ride height.

I don't run them on my drag setup. The car also had no problem relearning once I swapped my stockers back on by just using the procedure in the menu system. I can't recall the steps but it worked just fine afterwards. Plan on doing the same this year

I don't run them either, never had the light come on. I have to put mine back in the same spot so no need for a relearn. I figured the tpms light would come on with regular valve stems in the drag pack but the tpms light has never come on.

I thought about the sensors as well but it just didn't happen. About 20miles into my drive the tire monitor comes on. As soon as I switch back to my stock tires it goes out. No issues.

Ok guys now what about the hub centric rings use them or not? Just on front or all the way around ? Reason I'm asking is I got part of my order today and I was looking at my racestar installation kit and there is only 2 of the Rings in the box I havent bought after market wheels in years so a little dumb on these hub centric rings. BTW not real impressed with Racestars lugnuts and washers some of the washers don't even fit over the lugnuts maybe the box I got had been open Think I will run a tap down the threads in the lugnuts to be safe don't wanna screw up my studs

I use all 4 of the hub centric rings. All my lugs fit, but they are a pain in the ass to start. I stripped a stud already and had the dealer replace it on my dime.

I would wait till you have all 4 rings to center the wheel. Even with the tight fit of the lug nuts there is still some wobble in the mounting since there is no beveling to center the wheel. If I don't get the mount exactly right I can feel the wheel bump like it is out of round on my way to the track. There is a lot of chrome plating on the lug nuts that may need to be removed for the washers to fit.
When I got mine in November I was short a center cap and center ring as well. I contacted Race Star and was told I had to go through the company I bought them from. I called the company I bought them from and they immediately had a pack sent out. If you are missing anything it will have to go through the company you bought them from.

I use all the rings also. I've had no problems with the lugs as you just have to run them down slowly a little at a time and I torque at 130 lbs.
