The only reason I went with the 15x8 because summit doesn't offer 15x10 with 7.5 bs. Yes I am more than happy, I was expecting I was going to have to grind the hell out of my calipers. I didn't have to though, bolted them on. Its very close though, I took a file to the corners for a little reinsurance. Only issues I have is tire rubbing against the inner quarter. That will be solved this weekend though.

Weld Prostars 15x10 w/4.5bs. Waiting on my narrowed MWC FAB 9. Go with the 10"
w/7.5bs, It will fill in the back better than a 8". 8" IMO just looks to skinny. Not wide enought.

I wish I would have planned things better but, I can still run my zr1`s. I just got my MWC 9" a few weeks ago. I just wanted to be able to swap rims for track/street without any headaches so I stayed stock length. Will the 15x10 7.5 backspacing work with ls1 brakes and some grinding or do you need to grind the **** out of em? Maybe ill just sell my front summit stars and go with a different style rim all together.

The Weld Prostars 15x10 7.5bs will work with the LS1 brakes with alittle grinding.

You're running 3.5" fronts right? If so, you've got 7.5" wide tires on there?
