i think that with 15 inch rims you have to grind down the calipers.

The 15x3.5 skinnies will clear the front with a 5/16" spacer, and longer studs to be on the safe side. The rears will require the use of a grinder.

I have the prostars on my car on front and rear with no spacers. And as said above, had to grind all the calipers...
