New Racestar wheels There was an old thread about Greg Weld not being out of business and still making wheels...
Here are the new ones on the right and old "WELD" wheels on the left...
No grinding of calipers for these to fit
I'm gonna have to order fronts now, the rears are really sweet

These look great for the price! Billet Specailties charges 75 bucks more per rim for F-Body rears. That's over the original 230 price tag. The Race Stars will probably be my new rims sometime next year. Thanks for the info.

Looks good! You might be the first one to ever post pics of greg weld/racestar rears with pro star fronts! Looks kinda funny seeing it the other way around. 
Guess i can live with just a "lil bit" of grinding. Thought they had all those issues takin car of though... guess i'll be selling the rear pro stars soon

I was all ready to buy some Race Stars.....but I just can't get over the fact that they're made in China, and that uni-lug deal scares the hell out of me as well. Seeing as how my car will trap around 130mph next year I just can't trust a uni-lug wheel to stay tight and hold up, so I went ahead and bought some Weld ProStars.
