I had Rodlites on my Mark VII for a while; I had to replace one of the fronts because it warped. After that I sold them. I wouldn't use them on a car I was gonna drive much.

I had the 16 X 7 and 16 X 8 Drag Lites on my 83 when I took it to the World Ford Challenge in '99 and they were okay.  I had brake clearance issues with the front wheels when I switched over to the larger TC/Mustang GT 11" brakes with the 73mm caliper.  I ended up changing the brakes back to the 10" setup until I could sell them.  From there I went to the SN95 setup and some Bullitt wheels.

I think I have a picture of the car with them on it if anyone wants me to dig it up but it will be this evening when I get home.
