I just installed the new Race Stars. I live close to Beefcake and he threw them up for sale on the local Mustang forum. He cut me an incredible deal for the entire wheel/tire combo he ran on his Boss and even delivered them to my house. The wheels are basically new with only a couple hundred miles on them.
I wanted to get away from swapping a full set of wheels when I race and these are a nice compromise. The fronts are 17 by 7 with 215/55 Coopers. They weigh 43 lbs each. My 15 by 3.75 Race Stars with Nexxen 165/80's weight just over 30 lbs each.
Both of these are compared to my street wheels that weight 59lbs each. So in my case I will just run the fronts all the time and only swap rears when racing.
This will now be my new daily wheels and I will be ordering a set of matching 15 by 10's off Beefcake soon for the track.
