Default 15x4 up front need spacers?

Ok I am looking at a set of wheels with a 15x4 up front. Are you guys running spacers to keep from having to grind your calipers?

What size? Any pics?

If you have to grind does anyone have pics of how much needs to come off of the front and rear?

Thanks Tim.

I don't know about a 15x4 wheel, but with my 15x3.5 Weld Draglites I used a 5/16" spacer, no grinding.

I just installed Prostars and a 5/16" spacer. Had to do a lot of grinding. I was hoping for none. According to a lot of research there was supposed to be little to no grinding required for that combo. I guess every car is different...

The wheels I a m going to run are the Convo pro's. 15x4 front and 15x9 w/6.5 back spacing on the rear. I dont know what the front back spacing is. I am picking up the wheels this weekend. Will let everyone know how they fit.
