Default Need help, been ignoring an issue

I bought a set of Weld Pro Stars, 15X10 w/ 7.5" backspacing for the rear, and another set of Pro Star 15X4 w/ 1 7/8" backspacing for the front. I've had 2 different people try to grind the front calipers down and tell me those wheels will NOT work (for the front)

But I got those numbers off this forum... Does anyone know for sure, if those 15X4's will fit up front? I know there is a large amount of grinding needed, and neither of these guys are F-body people... So maybe they just arent aware of how much needs to come off... but before I start the process of sending these wheels back to JEGS, I'd like to find some sort of definite answer

Thanks!

You really need a 15x4 with 2.25" BS

I bought the wheels off JEGS and the only 15x4 they offered with our bolt pattern was the 1 7/8" backspacing... i could use a spacer if it would help, because I did buy all new ARP wheel studs
