I have a set of 15x8 Weld Pro Star Rims with 4 1/2 b.s.

Where are you from ???

Thanks, Pistol, but I need 4 7/8 or 5 inch back spacing. I have prostars on the car, now, (4 1/2 and 5 1/2 b.s.), but clearance is tight and I hate spacers, so going a different route. Southern Indiana. Ron.

Thanks for reply, Mark, but I think you'll find that those are alumastars, not prostars and are sorta pricey, $400 each. I did talk to Larry (nice guy and very helpful) and the Champion Wheels he sells are more in my price range ($240 each) plus can be ordered with virtually any offset , but I'm still looking for used rims, also. Thanks, Ron.

No problem, Mark. Thanks for referral to Larry Hodge. Looks like Champion Wheels for me unless something else turns up. Ron.

Ron-
I have a pair of 15X8 Weld Superlites w/ a dual bolt pattern and a 5" back-spacing that might work out for you. I sent you a PM....
Thanks!

Thanks anyway, Don, but can't use 5 1/2 backspacing. Ron.
