Default Greg Weld Question
Hypothetically speaking.If I were to get a narrowed rear for my Formula.I'm thinking 2.5" on each side,thus changing the needed backspace from 7.5" to 5.0".Would that change the fitment issue,since it would change where the caliper is in the main wheel hoop?

Prostars will still require some grinding, but not anything too crazy. Id go that route.

I like the look of the prostar/Greg weld combo anyway
