15x10 weld prostars...lots of grinding...no spacers...no hammering but i did need to get adjustable LCA to keep them from rubbing the bumper cover

I am running a MT 28x10.5S on a Bogart 15x9.75
Miner fitment issues, front inner bottom of wheel well and rolled the top of fender lip.
It is only a small issue that was an easy fix and most likely would not have been an issue except the car is lower. The top of my tires fit inside and above the fender well. You can not see the top of the tire.
You will need adjustable LCA and PHR to center the rear to fix best.
Also, it was not even an issue until I started trapping into the 120mph range.

Hope this helps
Bob
