jegs sport stars?
With my fronts, I run a 1/4" spacer and stock lugs. I'm pretty sure mine are the Summit Stars (basically the same thing) though. I also have 3" studs just to make sure there are no issues with the studs.

Neworleanslt1 test fitted them they stuck out so far gonna call jegs and exchange them for the 5.5" backspacing. The rear tires i got are mickey thompson et street radial size 275/60r15 they almost look to big to fit in the rear fenderwall does anyone else run this.size.tire on a 93?
^^^ Those tires are 28" dia, what are your goals for this tire/wheel setup? Going racing or just looking badass on the street? What trans and rear end gears do you have? This info is important when determining what diameter tire to run for best performance.
I would go with a 275/50 15 tire. I run the same size but a 10" wide wheel with 7.5" BS. It's the same diameter as stock (more or less) and works great with a 3.23-3.73 gear. So if the rearend is still stock you're ok with stock diameter tires.
I would still suggest the 275/50. The 275/60 is a 28" tire that balloons under acceleration. This will cause slight rubbing, usually around the back if the wheel well on the bumper cover. The 26" tire doesn't grow enough to cause problems and will give a bit better acceleration down the 1/4 mile. The 28" is good for bringing up the mph tho. I too thought about going to a 28" tire, but I don't feel like clearencing the body to keep my et the same with a bit more mph. I like my 12.9's at 103 before the gear swap. Once the snow melts I should be right around 12.7's at the same mph. Unless you want to put 4.11's in the rear I would stick to a 275/50.
