Default Weld Prostar rear fitment issue.

Does anyone have the Weld Prostar 15x10's on the back of their car because it looks like I'll have to grind the caliper to get them to fit? Are you guys running a spacer and grinding or just grinding the caliper? Thanks.

You can do either. If you run a spacer your going to want longer wheel studs though. You have to grind for all drag wheels other than bogarts, centerlines, and billet specialties. Its not too bad, just bust out the angle grinder and grind until they fit. I painted my calipars, tossed the wheel on quick, spun it, ground where the paint rubbed off, and repeated that step, until they fit.
