No they don't make them in 10" width in a 7.5" BS... 295/50 would be too wide for an 8" wide rim. It still might mount to an 8" but the tread would probably be bowed.

Almost identical.. the spokes are slightly wider and the Summit/Jegs Star wheels use stock acorn style lugnuts as well.

Theres tons of threads on here about these rims, most of them pretty recent.

Theres a post here of what the rear summits look like on my car and the jegs fronts (I've changed rims way too much lately!)

https://ls1tech.com/forums/wheels-tires/822433-jegs-summit-cragar-star-wheels.html

They use stock style lugs, stock studs, not near as much grinding. The only downfall is their 4.5 lb weight difference, but put a lighter tire on and you've made up for it and saved a few bucks. Plus being a more solid front runner should help rigidity, etc on the street.

Currently my car is down for a turbo build, but I'm selling those tires on the rear wheels and I ordered a set of fronts to match from summit with MT 1573 sportsman front tires and I'm planning on 28x11.5x15 hoosier qtp's for the rear. I was going to run the ET Front or hoosier front, but the lighter weight and thin rubber on the front scares me driving on the street alot...they're alot easier to puncture.
