I'm almost positive they are. This time last year they were impossible to find, and had been discontinued.

I called Weld today and asked them if it was discontinued because I was interested in some for my car, and they said that you could still get the pro star xp. They said that you can get them through their motorsport division. Just go to their website and click on Weld Motorsport at the bottom of the page. Then go to Wheels, then Pro Stock. Hope this helps.

Huh, that's weird. Their truck wheels sold pretty wel, and obviously so did their drag wheels.

The only thing that was a flop IMO were there motorcycle/high end car wheels. And even then I'm sure they still sold.

That's what they get for not catering to the F-body guys! It would have been nice for Weld to give us a correct wheel, so we didn't have to grind the **** out of calipers...

I love the look of the prostars. A friend of mine puts them on everything (s-10's, chevelles, etc.). I'd buy some but I also don't really want to grind the **** out of my calipers.
