Got my prostars!

**oneBADDz** · 08-19-2007, 09:06 AM

And I love them

I put VERY limited street miles on the car, so I'm selling the ten-spokes and unning the prostars all the time. I'm looking to buy a set or 15x8s to put some nittos on for street duty. I didn't clean it up or anything, but I wanted to take some quick pics to se how I liked it. Rears are 325/50/15 et streets and a little bigger than I would have bought but they were on the rims when I got them, fronts are 165 metrics on a 15x3.

The wussy automatic will still spin em from a 25 roll

And a pic of my car with my g/fs dad's just to post it

those look bad ass, any improvement in your 60' times?

**mrr23** · 08-19-2007, 01:59 PM

can never go wrong with prostars

I havn't been out yet joel, but before these I ran some 255 et streets on factory 5 spokes and cut 1.6xs I plan to spray pretty much out of the hole now and cut down the 60ft, I don't know what to expect. It is a 28" tire rather than 26" which sucks when you only have 3.23s, but it doesn't measure out that tall like it advertises. It equated to going to 3.08 gears when I measured it and did the math, that's my only worry right now. When they are gone I'll get the right size tire.

best my et street radials, same size can do is a 2.1 on an M6 car.

That doesn't make sense, is it the t/a? There has to be something wrong. I can launch from idle and hit the nitrous withing 5 feet and barely spin them. Are you doing a huge burnout? I found that at least in my case with a big burnout they don't stick very well, but just spinning them for a few seconds and then rolling out they hook like crazy. Lt1 or Ls1, that M6 should cut a 2.1 practically stock and on street tires

1.67 on those MT's. M6.

**Zboner** · 08-19-2007, 06:16 PM

and a full suspension car, i mean decked out

**oneBADDz** · 08-19-2007, 08:34 PM

so what's the source of the 2.1?

**speedkills** · 08-21-2007, 01:02 PM

So you have 15X10's on the back in you digitals? How does that big of a tire clear things in the wheel well?

It looks good, do you have the part numbers to the wheels, want to make sure I get the right ones with the correct back spacing.

Thx

Not sure of the part number, but they are Weld ProStars.
15x10.
BS = 7.5"

**oneBADDz** · 08-21-2007, 02:48 PM

digitals?

It's a 15x10, 7.5" backspacing. 5x4.75 bolt pattern. It clears everythign just fine, the guy I got them frmo had to beat on the fender wells with a hammer, but I didn't. It is typical that you have to beat on them some and remove the bump stop, although I didn't have to do either one. You do have to grind on your brake calipers quite a bit to get the rears to fit, ls1tech has a link with pictures and everything you need to know about that.
