Please help this noob Ok so i decided that my next purchase will be some front weld Racing Pro Stars from Summit.
But i have a few questions that some of you may be able to answer before i make my order.
So far i have picked out the 15 x 3.5 with a 1.75" Backspace.
My question is do i need longer wheel studs?
Do i need spacers?
I've heard that the 5/16" spacers are the right ones, is that correct?
What size and style lug nuts do i need?
and what size tire would be best on those 15x3.5's?
what would be a good tire that will see some street driving every now and then?
I've heard that the front and rear tire height have to be the same, is that right?
Some part numbers would be very helpful.
Thanks guys.

Yes you will, get the ARP 3.25" studs

Do i need spacers?
Yes and you have the correct size listed 5/16 and you'll more than likely still have to clearance the calipers

See above

MT Sportsman's in 26x7.5x15 since the car will see street time

See above

Doesn't have to be but if they are different sizes then the ABS and Brake light might come on in the dash
Camaro396 will probably chime in if I missed something
