Default Jegs Stars II - Summit Warrior R/T... Pics of them on my TA

Not the greatest pics cause they are all taken with my iPhone... but they get the point across I guess lol

The wheels are as the title describes. 15x8/5.5bs and 15x4/1.75bs. Rear tires are pretty big but they were cheap, have good treadwear, and actually arent bad hooking up on the street for a high mileage street tire!

Thought I'd post up these pics cause I've not seen any pics of these on cars yet. Let me know what ya think!!

I think they look awesome! I wanted to get those but I got the Fast Fives instead since a few months ago nobody was running them.

On the caliper grinding... I clearanced my rear calipers for 15x10 Weld Draglights previously when I had them and when I put these on they rubbed the barrels of the wheels so I had to take some material off the top/back side of the caliper but not much! The fronts cleared with no spacers or any grinding!

If they weigh the same as the Fast Five's (which most likely they do) I believe they are around 4 lbs heavier a piece than the Prostars.

They are around 3-4lb's heavier on the fronts compared to a 15x3.5 Weld and roughly 2-3lb's heavier on the rears. I personally love these wheels 100x better than Welds. They are cheaper wheels but seem to be much much stronger than Welds. They serve my purpose great too cause I drive them on the street alot and stronger means better for the street.

Main reason I bought them was cause nobody had them and I love the thinner spoke of these compared to the pro star knockoffs. I've got a pair of the regular jegs stars that have my slicks mounted on them.

Thanks for the compliments!

Why do they seem to be stronger?
