Default Center Line Wheels Competition Series Split Spoke

Will the 15x10 fit over rear lt1 brakes.

I searched and found a thread where someone said you need drag brakes on the rear?

No they will not. I had to run drag brakes even with those I could not fit a charge card between the caliper and rim.

Drag brakes work but if you had an old car with drum brakes no problems.

I looked at these a while ago. They don't make anything in a 7.5" BS and a 10" wheel with a 7" BS (the closest to F-body fittment that they will even make) is a custom wheel. They offered to make me a set, but I declined due to worries about brake clearence etc.

I'm going to run a narrowed rear so that won't be a problem with the backspacing. I was just hoping they would fit over the rear brakes...

Travis just so you know you only have to run drag brakes on the rear with the Centerlines the fronts fit with no issues at all.

This is my car with the Qualifiers.

Another back from the dead...I assume you bought them then before reading Jeff's post above saying you will need to run drag brakes on the rear.

Breathing just alittle more life back into the old thread.
Just which rear brake kits will let these wheels fit?
