Race Star 72 ValStar 15x12 / 5x4.75BC / 3.5BS / 3.072in CB / Black w/Machined Accents Wheel

If you're building a drag car and need a wheel that can handle serious acceleration, the Race Star 72 ValStar is a strong contender. This 15x12 inch wheel is designed for performance applications where every ounce of weight savings and structural integrity matters. Its black finish with machined accents gives it a sharp look that stands out on the strip.

The ValStar features a forged construction, which means it's built from a solid piece of aluminum that's then shaped under extreme pressure. This process creates a material that's incredibly strong and dense, allowing Race Star to engineer a wheel that's both lightweight and capable of withstanding the immense forces generated during hard launches and high-speed runs. The 12-inch width offers ample room for wider drag slicks, crucial for maximizing traction. With a 3.5-inch backspacing and a 3.072-inch center bore, it's designed to fit specific performance setups, often requiring modifications or specialized brake components to ensure proper clearance. Always confirm fitment with your specific vehicle and brake system before purchase.

When you're chasing down personal bests, the right wheel makes a difference. This Race Star ValStar wheel is a well-built component aimed at serious drag racers. Remember that for drag racing applications, you'll typically need to purchase lug nuts separately, and it's always a good idea to consult with a performance specialist to ensure compatibility with your suspension and drivetrain.
