Does anyone know what size wheel stud I should get for my fronts if I was wanting to get 15x5" Racestars? & also might throw a 1/2" spacer on it as well. Thank you!

I slapped mine on last night and went for a test drive. Anyone else have an iron block sitting up front? I'm worried about my skinnies (15x165s up front).

Also, I had my brake, abs inop, and asr lights come on. Some has to have encountered this...anyone?

anyone have a "color code" or know of the closest color to the grey wheels? Id like to paint my ZR1s to match so i can leave the fronts on full time on the street and run a paint matched ZR1 on the rear so it looks decent.

My buddy had that dilemma and took one of the wheels to an automotive paint place and they took some sort of picture of it (as he described it) and mixed him up some paint. Matches great.

Took off my black Corvette 18x10.5/17x9.5 wheels last night and swapped on my brand new Race Star Bracket Racer setup....Looks like a totally different car. I did very slightly roll the rear fenderlips, just because I wasn't 100% comfortable with how close they "looked"...Other than that, simple bolt-on.

Amazing that Chinese wheels bolt right on with no grinding and spacers and all that...

2000 Trans Am WS6
15x3.75 fronts (1.25" backspace) w/165R15 Ebay tires
15x10 rears (7.25" backspace) w/275/60R15 ET Street R drag radials
