Billet Specialties Street Lite Wheels



I wanted something a little different than what most guys had on their stangs at the strip. I saw the new Billet Specialties Street Lite wheels, and knew right away they’d do the trick! Designed for the street or strip the new Street Lite wheel is SFI 15-1 approved, light weight, and features an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio. These machined billet 15” Street Lites are absolutely gorgeous and combine a polished & machined finish for an aggressive look. Sizes range from 15x3.5 to 15x15. They accept mag shank lug nuts and can be used with 5/8” racing studs. Out front I ran a set of Kumho Powerstar 758 165/80-15 tires on the 15x3.5" wheels. Out back i wrapped the rear 15x8 wheels with two giant slabs of Nitto Drag Radial 555Rs in a chunky 275/50-15 size! I can already feel how much better these tires hook and I haven't dropped the pressure down on 'em yet. I've had these before on 2 other Mustangs an consistently dropped 3/10s of a second running this wheel and tire combination. Not Bad. For more info on these new Street Lites, contact Billet Specialties at 1-800-245-5382 or check out their website at http://www.billetspecialties.com/ Summit Racing also carries these wheels in stock for many applications http://www.summitracing.com/
