Don't mind the dedicated "wheels and tires" section or the search button of this forum.

15x8 wheel u need 5.5 bs
15x10 u need 7.5 bs

also not sure if u already know but depending on what brand/manufactur wheel u are using, pro stars, draglites, convo pros etc u will need to grind the calipers down quit a bit on a ls1 car, lt1 car u still need to but not as much. also throw in brand new pads in the rear before u start grinding. only ones i know that you dont have to are the billet specialties wheels. good luck.

I'm running Bogarts from SJM Manufacturing with M&H 12x26 slicks, and the only grinding I did was the mount for the bump stop. I take the bump stops off when I put the slicks on. It's probably not necessary because the suspension never unloads that much on the track, but I do it anyway.

If you have any doubts about it, SJM will know exactly what you need when you tell them what car you drive. I just told them 15x10 on an LS1 F-body, and that was all thye needed to hear.

What's so hard about using the stickies? That's what they're there for, right? Someone took the time to compile a lot of links and useful info so that people would be able to be grown ups and find the answer themselves, rather than have to ask the most basic questions over, and over, and over...

First of all, someone who can barely put together a sentence correctly should really refrain from insulting others. Who are you to talk down on anyone when you spell like a middle school dropout?

Second, many of us don't care to impress anyone on here, but we are here to help people with questions concerning the LSx cars, or any area of expertise in which we can contribute. I know I've used up a considerable amount of my time typing up paragraphs of information to answer a question someone asked, only to see it asked again and again and again. It's really annoying and only demotivates people who have something to contribute. It's like why even bother?

Like I said, I like to help. I'm no badass or master of all things mechanical, but when I think I can help, I try to help.

It's just annoying to read the same "What's the best cam?" or "What's my compression ratio?" threads every week when there is plenty of info in the stickies already. I think people need to learn to use the search function, or at least check the stickies first before posting such simple questions. If you are too lazy to try and do the research yourself, be prepared to get us "********" telling you to use the tools the site moderators provide you and don't be such a crybaby about it.

BTW, I had no problem searching Google for "LS1 Camaro Backspacing" on my phone. I literally have over 5 pages of results with one link on the first page specifically talking about 15x10" wheel backspacing. Not to mention, LS1Tech has a mobile version now, so I don't buy the "search doesn't work on my phone" excuse.
