Jegs Sport Lite and Sport Star Wheels

Has anyone tried these wheels before to see if they fit an 05+ mustang. I read somewhere that they are a replica of the weld racing XP. I just tried calling jegs to see if this was true, but their product info guy wasn't very helpful, he just said they look the same. They probably weigh a bit more than weld racing wheels because they cast aluminum, but I figure its cheaper than bogart rims or waiting around for a used set of XP's to come along.

This is the forum where I read that they are XP replicas(sorry I know its a camaro forum)

I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that a 15" wheel would not clear our brakes.

Thanks Turbo05gt, those may do the trick.

The XP will clear, but they are no longer made by Weld Racing. The only ones that I know will fit are the Bogart rims or Holeshot Racing makes wheels that will fit with a spacer. Some 15`wheels may require a sway bar relocation kit as well. I sent Jegs an email so hopefully I`ll hear back from them soon. It looks like Summit Racing also offers a similar style wheel. According to the second link in my first post a guy claims theres more clearance than the Jegs wheels.
