Convo pro's, if you get the right offset. They stick out of the wheel wells a bit though, not sure if that bothers you. I had a pair of 15x8.5 and 15x4's, none of them required any caliper grinding.

Centerline Convo Pro's do not require grinding if you use the 15x7.5 with 5" BS or the 15x8.5 with 5"bs.
You can see 2 pages of pictures of both these sizes as well as 15x4 at the link below:

im looking for a set of rear drag wheels for the track..should I just invest in some 16" **** rims with some MT's on em, or spend the cash on a nice set of drag rims and wider MT's?

BTW thanks for all the replies!

depends if you want all looks, all performance, or both.... i use 94 z28 wheels (salad shooters) which is the lightest 4th gen wheel, with MT ET Streets.... i'm thinkin of swithin to convo pros b/c they look friggin sweet, but you can grind the caliper and repaint them and go with weld draglites

That's up to you, depending on how much you want to spend. Drag wheels would be nicer, but getting some cheapo 16" snowflakes would be cheaper. The drag wheels obviously have the advantage that they can be lighter and wider, plus they look secksy. Don't ask us, as your pockets .

well I already have pro stars for the fronts....I run a spacer for those to fit without grinding....i have sexy *** TT2's for my DD, this is for the FEW time I will go to the track..I want sticky *** tires....
hmm ok, well thank you for the input..maybe ill just grind and repaint...how much do I need to grind the rear calipers to fit say some 15x 8 pro stars in the back?

If its strictly for the track and you don't go often I'd just throw some MT DR's on some stock 16" rims and use your skinnies. Won't look killer, but will work fine.

No I dont think so.I have some Jegstars up front on mine.(Look just like Prostars) 15by 4s and they went on with no spacers or grinding.Cheap too!

i like the idea of a 16x9 for the rears ,but there is only one problem , i can't find any 16x9 draglites anywhere ....jegs or summit. Now maybe you meant 15x9 w/ a 5.5 bs ,cause they do sell those. Now if they do sell a 16x9 ,please correct me if I'm wrong.

Not sure how people like em, but I just scored some 16 x 9.5 AR Hopsters for a good price off ebay with the special order 6 3/4" BS. As soon as I receive them I'm going to either mount 28" ET Streets or M&H 275/55-16 Drag Radials.
