I really need help with these wheels. I have a 1985 camaro z28 (stock size rear end and wheel studs) and am trying to buy some 15 inch Welds Pro Stars. I want to fit a 255/60/15 tire on the back and 225/60/15 on the front. I do not know what size wheel to get. Like I need to know everything from width to back spacing. Thanks

Re: Pro Star
I can tell you this much, I run basically that same tire combination (235's front) and I love it.235/60r15 front with 7” wide wheel and 255/60r15rear and 8”wide wheel to give it a staggered look. . Any way here's what that tire combo looks like =

If I had not used this wheel I would have used the Weld Prostars

Re: Pro Star
Hey thanks! I really like this. Would 225's fit on the 7" wide wheel? and do you know the back spacing of the wheels? Because that's my main issue is not knowing what backspacing to use

Re: Pro Star
225's will fit fine.I am using 235's on the front with 7” wheels with no problem. As far as BS is concerned 4.5 all the way around seems to be popular but I would wait to hear that from a few other guys on the board.
