Default 2 Drag setups

1st $650
Weld Pro Stars 15x3.5 & 15x10 with 5.5 Backspace.
Not perfect but still in good shape. No curbing or rash just some grooves on the backside for rocks getting stuck between the wheel and caliper.
Rear tires need to be replaced but the front sportsmens are good.

2nd $1200
Racestar 94s 17x4.5 & 15x10 7.5 backspace. Uni lug 5x4.5 and 5x4.75
In great shape. Front tires are like new.
Rears have 325/50/15s Et streets with some fender damage from rubbing on tight turns. Still hold air and I've made a few passes with them this way. Treaded valve stems. All center caps included. Not looking to ship. Located in Central call/text 908510822nine.

How much did you have to grind your rear calipers to get the pro stars to fit?

Explain the difference... They were purchased on this site and listed as Pro Stars. So that's what I have them listed as.

i was goin to tell u to look for cast marks. the ones u just posted r they the fronts? and the ones u posted the other day the rears? cause it looks like the front r real pro stars and the rears r knock offs. the fronts will rattle with center cap and lug runs out and the rears ones wont. a real weld pro start is a multi piece wheel and the knock off r one piece cast alum
