JEGS Sport Lite and Sport Star Cast Aluminum Wheels - JEGS
Anybody try out these Jegs Weld lookalike wheels? How do they compare to the Weld Draglites other than being cheaper pricewise? Will the backspacing and bolt circle options work with our cars?

 

[kingots2004]

its heavier because its a 1 piece wheel

So I guess they're only if you want to "look" cool?

And i noticied the draglite style only has 5 lug holes vs 10 which weld has to support two different size bolt patterns.

 

[kingots2004]

yeah i guess lol na they are proably still lighter than a steel wheel but the higher dollar wheels are 2 piece and are hollow in the middle except for the metal block around the hub area.

Yes

I put a set on for a friend--well worth the $---I would buy them if not for probably being foreign made.

Not really any good backspacing for our cars unless you went with a 7in rim our cars need like a 3 3/4 or 4 in backspacing.

Yeah, I'd want to run a 15 x 8 on the rear. I've been trying to figure out a cheap alternative to the American Racing wheels on the car now that won't break the bank. Thanks for the info guys.

I be got two Centerline autodrag wheels I satin finish 15 x 8.5 $200. Shipped with 3.75 backspacing

I have them on the front of my Camaro. I like them better than Weld's, and the extra pound or two didn't make any difference.

I ran a set of Weld Draglites for years with 7's in the front, 8's in the back and 3-1/2" b.s. on all four. The stance and offset was absolutely perfect.

Did you have to use any spacers?

 

[xXch0dyXx]

no spacers. if i rolled my lip, i would have absolutely no rubs at all ; - )

thinking about a bigger tire when i roll the lip, need some sub 1.5 60's
