Default 6 lug drag wheels

Is there another good option for 6 lug big & little wheels besides race star? I saw a pic of some welds on Facebook and dude didn't post any details. They may not be any cheaper or quicker to get than any of the other custom forged manufacturers. Looking for 17x9.5 or 10 and 17x5(ish).

Welds are available but about twice the price of racestars. That is why everyone has racestars. LOL

The race stars are not for me. I would have a factory set from weldcraft before running race stars and it's actually an attractive option anyway. So I may just do that. Some 20x9.75-10 for the rear and let the tire selection decide the width of the front.

Question...... if you are looking for drag rims, why 20's? I may get a set of Welds next year, I am not a fan of the Racestars, but the price is right, but I' like to stick with 17's if I could find a proper size tire. I'd drop to 15's if they would fit.

I'm saying I can have more rubber on the ground with a wider 20 and quicker than getting a set of welds or other custom set. I still want some 17in welds or possibly true forged. TF does a sick 6lug, I haven't been able to get in touch with them yet.

I ordered another set of the Ford Performance wheels to drop-ship directly to Weldcraft yesterday. Gotta pick out some rubbers now.

Well plans have shifted, Weldcraft is now widening both front and rear. I decided to trade trucks instead, ultimately what I want to do with the truck is drag race it l and awd launches are so useful.
