Rim Question

What size backspacing is needed for a 15x10 rim to fit on an 98-02? I was thinking 5.5 but not sure if it would rub inside or hang out of the fender lip

7.5" on a Camaro, personally I like 6.5" on a T/A. They have a wider rear 1/4 panel and the 6.5 ends up flush with the fender. I've got pics of my WS6 with 6.5 Prostars in a thread somewhere on here.

James, They did awesome. Wish her and Sheila would have met in the finals. It was a nail biter the whole way down the track. It was awesome to see two females in F-bodies doing so well. Shes ready for the next clash to come around. lol

If I don't see you at the SNS (might not make it, have a scuba class) Hope you and family the best this holiday season, and see yall next year
