Bogart 15x3.5 with 2.25BS, clear stock ls1 brakes?
Been looking at new wheels, and almost 3.5 or 4" wheel I've found that works for an fbody, is 1.5 to 1.75BS.
If the pad height is correct, is there any reason a 15x3.5" bogart D-10 with 2.25" BS wouldn't fit?
A 15x4" Weld rt/s with the "low" pad height comes in either 1.625" or 2.5" BS,
I'm assuming an ls1 fbody needs atleast the medium pad height (which, btw only comes in 1.5" BS, but is only .300" higher than the low pad) to clear the caliper.
I'm looking for a wheel that will put the tire in the fender more, and buying a pair of $335/ea Bogarts, or the $239/ea rt/s is still cheaper than the alternative to pull the tires in at this point.
