i am wanting to but a set of summit/jeg stars.

my car is a 96 z28

i am running a 12 bolt with 4th gen spacing.

a local car is running a set with set of MT 28/12.5s et streets (non radial), on a set of 10 wide wheels..... but he was running a 9 inch from a 3rd gen. he told me had had to do some hammering and trimming of the rear bumper, which i am fine with doing.

my question is...
i wanna run the exact same combo, but with backspacing to fit my car. what do i need?

this isn't the car, but this is the look i want.

10" wide wont look good, u will need to have it shortened for it to look good on a 10" wde rim..
and for the fronts these..

The 10" wheel doesn't have the correct backspacing and will stick out a little bit past the fender. It works out OK on Trans Ams... but might be a little ugly on Camaros.


with the 15x8 wheel you'll want a 5.5" backspacing.

doesn't look too bad here....

It doesn't look bad there because those are NOT Summit Stars, they are Weld Prostars and they have the right 7.5BS in the 15x10 that you need.

i guess i just need to see them in person.

i know they use a different lug style, but i didn't know anything else was different.

Summit Stars and Prostars are COMPLETELY different.

The Summit Stars:

1. Weigh more.
2. Use a regular lug nut instead of a shank like the Prostars
3. Are a cast aluminum piece.
4. Do not come in the right offset in a 15x10 wheel, only a 15x8
5. Are a cheap knock off of the Weld Prostar

i think i am going to buy some used pro stars then, i know they will fit, and its even running a 28x13.50 tire
