Not sure why you would want to run a 15x7 front in a drag wheel, i can see a 17x7 or 17x6,can i ask why you want to run that size?

Been driving on 15x4 skinnies and just want a more street friendly setup. I like these wheels, but just want to go to a wider wheel in the front and keep my 15x10 in the rear.

Yes you can run welds on the street, you want more of a street friendly setup go 17x7,17x6 in the front, i have dd on my 15x3.5 s for sometime now, i dont know of anyone running a 15x6 on the front, get the 17x7s than when ya can get some 17 rears to switch for street use,

15 inch wheels wider than 3.5 will hit the caliper, the brake rotor and caliper are too large for any 15inch wheel to fit over on an ls1 car. you would need to swap your front brakes out for 93 camaro v6 front brakes and rotors, or go with a drag brake setup
