Question

weld prostars too skinny in front


Hi everyone. I don't think i have ever posted here before but the nice rides made me want to register so i could zoom in on all your sweet pictures.

I just got my second 95. This time i went gt. found the car for 1800 with 150k on it but the engine had been torn down for a rebuild and they lost interest I found a wrecked 94 gt and bought everything i needed to swap the engine and a t5 in it for 1000.

anyhow it has some pretty nice drag modifications like drag suspension and a right side airbag inflator thing that allows you to put more tension on the right side of the chassy by stiffening up the give by the right shock during "performance" situations (take off i assume)

But that's not really me. I like the fact that with my old v6 i could take my buddies out to what we call peach orchard road and show them how 50/50 weight distribution in a 944 doesn't mean S|-|!+ when you can't drive.

I am a little older now and I have a clean driving record so my intentions have changed but to cut to the chase...

The car I just bought came with 3.5 prostars on the front. I have no intentions of drag racing this car and I would love to put something a little thicker on the front for a more practical ride... is there nothing bigger than a four? i would consider Summit or Jeg's copies of the wheels if they would work.

pro stars were produced in 15x3.5, 4, 7, 8 and 9.. there were some xp versions that were 16 to 17" and as wide as 11" I believe but there very rare. The summit and jeggs are copies and are heavier wheels.

I'd put yours up for sale or trade for some 15x7's or whatever

a 15x7 with a P195/75-15 would work fine

Oh ok. I like that idea. Also, are these 3.5 wheels even legal to be on my car on the road?
