Wait for the prostars if you want an economy style wheel...if you want a direct fit wheel, choose our LS1 or LT1 designed Bogarts which are almost HALF the weight of the jeg/summit style wheel.

For the record, these are NOT drag wheels. Prostars and our Bogart wheels ARE drag wheels. Those summit/jegs wheels are takeoffs from the original and in no way anything like the original.

Those VW tires are not for your car...you may reconsider a different tire if you're looking for something safe and spec'd for your car.

Default NEW Jegs SSR STAR WHEEL Direct Bolt on for LS1 Camaro

Brand new Front Drag wheel just released 2 weeks ago.

Heres the Link....

http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS-Performan...81252/10002/-1

Direct Bolt on Front Drag Wheel for LS1 Camaro.

15x4" , 5 x 4 3/4 Bolt Pattern, 1 3/4" Back spacing


I just spoke with a Tech. at Jegs. He told me he has these same exact wheels on his Stock 2002 LS1 Camaro.

He told me these wheels are a Direct Bolt on Wheel for the LS1 Brake Caliper cars with NO Grinding of Front Brake Calipers. Wheel Spacers are Not Needed either.

I just ordered one 15 x 8 with a 5.5 back space to test fit on the rear of my 95 Trans Am. I will post a pic of the fit. Should be here tomorrow.

The wheels really look sharp, please post up more pics when you paint the centers.

Also can you tell us what the wheels weigh?

So the 15x10 with 5.5" backspacing will fit a 1998 Trans Am WS6? I know the 15x10 Race Stars fit with a 7.5" backspacing. Want to make sure before I order these tomorrow. Thanks!

Not unless your rear end is narrowed. If stock, a 15x10 5.5 backspace will stick out past the quarter & look goofy. You will need a 15x8 5.5 for it to sit flush with the quarter.

Yes the stock lug nuts fit just fine.
I haven't bought tires yet as I'm getting ready for Hot Rod Dragweek. I'm a passenger helping out a buddy of mine.

These look nice, especially the black finish ones. Looks like no 15x10 with 7.5" BS available yet though.

I'd buy a set no question if they offered those. Price is super cheap.
