no, you will be fine running the 15x3.5 on the street. i have had them on my dd since october and have had no problems. just take it easy around corners

If is your daily drive, you will feel safe running wider than 3.5 in the front, I have 15x3.5 but doesnt feel very safe man to be honest, and to put something on your car that will be unsafe is not worth it , but is up to you is just an advice, so if you run 3.5 you will need 1.75" backspacing, shank style lug nut 12mm x 1.5 thread size, 1.300 - 1.380 in shank length, and a 0.679 - 0.687 in shank diameter, ARP wheel studs and 5/16" spacers.
You might need to grind a little still.
By the way I never had problems with 15x3.5 fronts but I just hate feeling unsafe everytime I turn or high speeds in the highway
good luck

I have used them on several cars, but they aren't DOT legal, just an FYI. As long as you remember you have a very small contact patch for braking and cornering, you'll be OK. I wouldn't daily drive on them personally, but my camaro runs on them 100% of the time, only rims I have right now. I just don't drive it alot though.

I had 15X3.5 centerlines with 165/sr15 radials on my 95 s10 DD . It turns good enough

15x3.5 Draglites up front, stock studs, no spacers. I drive the car all the time on the street with absolutely 0 problems, ever. Don't be afraid to do a little grinding...

15X3.5 up front on mine as well. Take it easy around corners and it's fine. Sometimes a bump going around a corner or at higher speeds feels scary, especially with no front sway bar lol
