Pro Star skinnies I'm going to be looking at buying a set of weld racing's pro stars to replace my stock chrome wheels on my 98 camaro very soon. I just wanted to know everyones opinion on how they think the 16 inch rear wheels would look with the Pro Stars up front. Maybe I could have a pic photoshopped by someone? And also, what size would be best and where can I get the spacer to make the wheels fit properly. thanx.

My buddy Jeremy just put Pro-Star runners on the front of his 02 NBM Z28 and they look awesome. The car looks much more aggressive now.
Call Weld to get the correct sizing/spacer you need. I'm not sure if anything they make will be a perfect fit, though. You might have to grind down your caliper a bit to get the wheels to fit.

Last time I checked, Pro-Star 15's were cheaper than 16's. I don't know what you mean when you say you can't find a 15" street tire?? Almost everybody makes 15" tires, and BFG and Nitto make DR's for a 15 too.

It is my delivery vehicle on weekdays and racecar on weekends.It gets over 20 mpg on my drive to and from the track[300 miles] and it has 2750 1/4 mile passes on it.
Sponsors love the fact that it is seen everyday on the street and not just one day a week at the track!!
It is also a great attention getter for my store!!
P.S.// Also tax deductible!!
