I hear 7" backspacing is required, but they supposedly still need grinding.

Anyone?? Also do a search there seem to be a lot of questions in regards to this.

Not sure of what backspacing you have. But I had to grind and use a spacer. I also used extended studs as well. Only way to be safe with the spacer. The spacer is 5/16 ths. Dont know where you get them. Mine were custom turned on a lathe.

You need a 7.5" Back Spacing. I was going to throw Drag Lites on my car, but either way, i would still have to grind down my calipers and thats not going to happen.
