what size tire do you reccommend for the 15x4?

They look better than I expected.

All depends on what your goal is.

You can do the MT SR radial, ET Front, Sportsman Front, Hoosier, Or the MH front.

I personally Like the SR Front Radial And the 275/60/15 ET Drag radial, Espically if you drive on the street alot.

I run 1/2"x3.47" ARP wheel studs on the rear. Will the Streetlites fit with the bigger diameter studs?

Also, my front calipers are powdercoated and I don't want to grind them if I don't have to. If I use a small spacer will it give me enough clearance so I don't have to grind anything?

yes they will fit with the studs in the rear.

You can run a small spacer 1/8th", It might stick the wheel out a little of the wheel well just a tad. To some it might not be Noticeable.

I dunno, I think the SLs look better as 17s instead of 15s...they don't look like a drag wheel in the back with the thin spoke....they look good as a street wheel though..

I kind of thought the same thing. I just received my 15x10 rears and mounted some hoosiers on them the one thing I can say is looking at them on the internet doesnt do them justice. In person they definitely look like a bada$$ drag wheel.

Any better pictures of the 17" wheels on a Camaro or Bird from a distance. I've seen the ones on the Monte and they look great; just would be neat to see them on a FBody to get an idea of how they will look (other then close up).

Don't worry either way i'm planning on picking up 2 - 17x8, 2 - 17x9.5, and 2 - 15x10 come tax time. (any deals for buying 6 wheels at once?!?! )

[QUOTE=Dragwheelz.com;10374478]Yes they will.

On the front you can use the 15x4 or the 15x3.5 and the Ls1 specific rear wheels.



It is a Stock Length Rearend in the car. The dish you see is what you get.




Whose Drag Brakes are you running??? if they are strange you should not have an issue, I have heard some complaints of them not Fitting on Aerospace, But other people have not said they had a problem.

You can utilize the regular 15x10 with drag brakes. your price on those would be 230.00 ea shipped to you. here are a few pics with them with Strange Drag Brakes and a narrowed rear end.
