Default RaceStars? Which size..

http://www.mccormackracing.com/cgi-b...y=ID&order=123
It looks as though there are some pretty good deals on these wheels.
Are they junk wheels, or just a good sale going on?

If they are a recommended big/little combo, which sizes do you guys recommend for the fronts/rears?

McCormack knows the backspacing etc. you need when you call. Good luck getting the front ones though mine have been on backorder since November. They're suppose to be in this month though. They seem to be great quality. I've only got a few passes on my rears but I don't have any complaints. Just had to knock the high spots off my calipers but I think that's with just about any of the 15s. I went with a 15 x 10 on the rear with a 27x11.5 Hoosier. Depends on what tire you want to run. I ordered a 3.75 front but don't remember the tire size, 26"s tall though.

15x10 rear, size as far as height depends on power you're making and what gears you have. You should go 275x50x15 on a 15x10 wheel, that will give you 26". Fronts personally I'll be doing 3.5/3.75, whatever it is, with http://www.summitracing.com/parts/mtt-6652 that tire if I ever do it (MT Sportsman SR 6652 26 x 6.00-15). From the description they appear to be unilug which Racestar is getting rid of so that probably explains the cheap price.
