Telstars--Oh yeah!

[turbosam6]

Got my new Telstars put on today (Thanks Mom!), car looks killer. I can't wait until summer to get this thing back out! Wish I had a digital camera, but its not like you all haven't seen them before. These have got to be the best looking rims for a GN by far. Now all I need is a 17" set of Simmons and I'll have all the shoes I need! I'm up to 3 and 1/2 sets now! Bling Bling!

Why do you need to wait until Summer? Oh yeah...I forgot you guys get something they call winter!!!

What size and backspacing did you get?
I am looking to buy a set now!
I am thinking 15x8 with 3 1/2 bs for rear with ET Streets rear and 15x6 or 15x7 with 3 1/2 bs in front.
Need snow tires here in Michigan now!

I got the 15x6 in front and 15x8 in the rear with 4" of BS, which fits perfect. I have rims with 4.5, 4, and 3.5 BS. The 4.5's rub the frame, and the 3.5's may be a little close to the lip on the quarter. I like the 4's. I'm pretty sure the 15x6 can only be had in 3.5 BS.

What size/kind tires are you running in the back?
I was thinking of going with the ET Streets 28x11.5 in the rear.

I have 275-60-15 BFG drag radials out back, these wheels and tires are for street use. I have 28x9 et drags on some draglites with 3.5 BS for track use.

I wish we could post pictures here like we did before!!!

Do a search on "telstar" and you can find plenty of links to pictures on here.

Thanks.
I am really concerned with the backspacing. I do not want the tires to stick out and look goofy!

My telstars have 275/50 15 nittos on them...

im pretty sure they have a 4 inch backspace too-

you want a few pics of the car with them on it?

I have been here for a few years now and that "search" feature works awesome. First time I used it. Thanks.
