I am pretty sure they discontinued them. You can find them on ebay sometimes.

Saw a catalog at the shop the other day that listed Draglight XPs. No prostars though.

I'm 99% positive they did offer 18s. They were discontinued as far as I knew. Almost 2 years ago if I recall. This ad I saw was fairly recent though.

Good luck finding some. The guys that have them usually won't let them go.

My buddy had Weld Prostar XPs on his GT. They looked so sick in 17". Especially with slicks out back on 15s, and 17s up front.

I cannot F-ing believe Weld doesnt make those anymore. Or anything that doesnt require grinding and spacers. As many f-bods racing? Crazy.
