Default JEGS Sport Lites,Summit Stars

I'm looking into Summit Stars or Sportlite's(JEGS) and I was wondering if anyone is running these? How do they like them? How much do they weigh per wheel compared to the Weld Prostar's? Are you on factory Studs? What size tire you running?

Any help would be great.

Running the Summit Stars on my car. Factory studs, using an acorn lug with a small shank. They are about 4-5lbs heavier than the Prostars. Fronts fit without any grinding or spacer on my LT1 and the rears fit over my pre-ground calipers.

I'm running a 28x11.50R15 ET Street on some 15x10's. But since you have a camaro I wouldn't go with anything but the 15x8. The 15x10's have a 6.5" BS and will stick out too far on a camaro.

Here is my brothers trans am. He likes the wheels alot! They did not need anything special to put them on. Stock everything. I didn't even have to grind the calipers. But the vehicle is lowered like 2 inches all the way around.
