Pro Star Question
Pro Star Question I'm looking into buying some pro star look a likes from jegs (there own brand)
I want the 15x10 in the rear but I was wondering what are people running in the front 15x?? Also what else do I need to do something about shave the calipar? Last but def not least what back spacing do I want? Here is a link to the rims. I think there called Sport stars actually.

they will fit!! i think you might want to run the 7.5 B.S. you will also need to shave the caliper. as far as tire goes you can use a 295-50 R 15 however on hard launches the tire will rub on the quarter panel. And no you do not have to change the studs.. 
yes you should ALWAYS change out the studs to longer ones if you're running the pro star type rims. I've seen buddies lose the front wheel studs on skinnies due to not enough thread engagement. They always swapped out the rear studs for 3.25" ARPs right away but skipped changing out the fronts....now we know to do both.

I'd suggest if you want a drag style wheel and are on a limited budget, choose a real weld prostar wheel. Those wheels your looking at are not drag wheels, they do not use shank style lugs, they use the acorn style.
They are all show (if you want to call them that), little to no benefit wheels...keep the stockers.
If you want a wheel that has the best benefits, show-quality, lightest direct fit wheel on the market which are built for your car, our Bogart wheels are what to consider.
Well I ordered the Weld Prostars (the real Welds) so besides shaving down the rear calipars, is there anything else I need to do? The fronts are 15x4. Should I pick up any 1/4 gains with these lighter wheels?

if you plan on running the real prostar in the front you need a 5/16" wheel spacer, in the back with the 15x10 you just need the long shank lug nuts. I currently have the welds in the back and they look great!!!
