Default Weld Racing RT-S Wheels on sale! Free shipping!



Weld Racing's new RT-S series combines multiple performance capabilities with vehicle application flexibility to a level not seen previously in the street performance marketplace. The ability to perfectly complement a 2010 Muscle Car, a 2006 GTO, a classic '32 Hot Rod, a Hemi Super Bee, the ubiquitous '69 Camaro, and any Corvette with the same wheel family is ground breaking, unmatched, and highly desirable. Modern brake packages can be difficult to accommodate with most wheels, RT-S wheels can be selected to complement a 6 piston billet caliper or a 1940's drum brake by selecting one of the 3 available pad heights, so yes, an RT-S will fit your ride. The forged three piece welded-modular construction makes it possible to build a 15", 17", 18", a or 20" wheel in widths from 3.5" to 18", so you have no limits in tire size either. Since the wheel centers are CNC milled forged billet, RT-S offers the strength needed by today's high horsepower cars while making it possible to apply cutting edge designs and finishes. Just like your car, there is nothing like an RT-S wheel from Weld Racing.
  • Welded modular construction
  • 3 pad heights for optimum brake clearance
  • Widths from 3.5 to 18.0 inches
  • 15", 17", 18", and 20" diameters
  • 5x4.5", 5x4.75", 5x5", 5x115mm and 5x120mm bolt circles
  • 100% forged aluminum alloy
  • Polished or machined after black anodize center
  • Finite Element Analysis used to optimize strength, and design
  • In house radial and rotary load testing to qualify for production
  • On vehicle testing to qualify for production
  • Surpasses SFI 15.1 and SAE street wheel standards
  • 1580 pound load rating
  • Manufactured in Kansas City, USA

Cool, that's what I was hoping. One last question, do the TPMS fit in these? I have a 99 would I have to use the newer style TPMS?

Do they come with center caps and lugs?

And, for the black wheels, are the center caps black also?

Thanks. Beautiful wheels...

Center caps are included. Lug nuts are not. Yes, they're black.
