stock camaro with 15 x 10 welds?
freind is selling 15 x 10 welds how wide of a tire would that be 315?
would 15 x 10 bolt on and fit without touching or rubbing on a stock z28

The 315's will if you should have at least 10 inch wide rim for 315.s. The 15 inch weld rim is going to hit the brakes unless you change to drag brakes or grind the calaper down a little bit.

even if they stick out of the well a tiny bit i dont care, as long as they bolt in and tight i only want a few good launches at the track.

For our cars, here's the info you need:
15x8 wheels need 5.5" or higher BS
15x10 wheels need 7.5" or higher BS
Basically, you don't want any more than 2.5" of the wheel width outboard of your axle flange.
Centerline convo-pros or Bogart's wheels are really the only wheels that will bolt up without modification to the existing brakes. Centerlines will not require longer wheelstuds either.
Weld Draglites or Prostars require a good bit of grinding on the front and a scary amount of grinding on the rear (without spacers). So, in short...
your looking for wheels with a 5 x 4 3/4 bolt pattern with the width's and BS's above.

my telstars were 15x8 with a 5" backspacing. they were flush with the outside of the body, and with a hard enough bump or too many people in the car it will rub the quarter panel. 5 1/5" is ideal, but you CAN do 5" and not look too ghetto fabulous. since then with the new rear, I got 15x10's, but I had the rear narrowed 2 1/2" each side and it's perfect.
btw - you thought the prostars needed a lot of grinding....hahaha Telstars....i'm surised the caliper hasn't busted. I grinded all the way back into the sliders...and then some!
