You can buy my two front convo pro's 15x4 front runners



There are plenty of nice drag wheel set-ups like weld, billet specialties, centerline, bogart, etc. Some require grinding of the calipers and some don't.

Also, the measurements for the F-bodies are

Front- 4.75" bolt pattern and 1.75" backspacing
Rear- 4.75" bolt pattern and 7.5" backspacing (also depends on how much you shorten your rearend and all that good stuff) but stock it's 7.5"

As Steve said 15x10s. 15x8s limit your tire choices severely, and look stupid IMO. Which Weld wheels are you looking at? The new RT line from Weld Racing will fit over stock brakes with no modifications.

Here are Weld Racing Weldstar R/T wheels.





Heres the same setup, with a 17" Weld Alumastar front.





Welds new RT line also comes with a black finish option.







But heres a complete list of all the new wheels that are offered from Weld Racing that are designed for the LS1 brake calipar.

28" tires on the back definitely look better IMO.

Summit wheels do not come in a correct backspace to correctly fit a 1993-2002 F body. Also they are made in China, you should want to support a USA made product such as Weld Racing, Bogart, Billet Specialties, ect.

the thing is that im working on a budget im only 18 so money is pretty tight right now so that mite be the best choice for me rite now but if i were to get them whats the fitment problem with them im most probably gonna go with the 15x8s in the back with a 26x10 r15 tire does any one know if that would fit and looks good??????? if any pics of that combo please post oh and im going 15x4s in the from dont know what tire would look good tho

You will have to grind on your brake calipars using the summit wheel, and will be limited to the 15x8 wheel. If you mean 275/50/15 drag radial, that tire is best fitted on a 10" wheel. And I'm only 19 too, but I decided to save up for correct fitting made in America wheels.

+1...they don't make a correct backspacing for the rear wheels for an F-Body, but they do make front one's . I'm going to be running prostars on the rear and the summit version on the front, I've heard no bad about them.

Those black alumastars look sick....


Camaro396,


Are the alumastars any lighter than the rt's?
