I did a search on these wheels last night and it was kind of inconclusive. I just talked to someone who said the 15x8 fit without grinding on his car, then he sold them to a friend who had the same results.
I was wondering out of the guys on here that have them who had to grind and who didnt.
I know that bogarts and billet wheels fit without grinding but I'm trying to save a little money on my drag setup.

i just called centerline and the guy said that the qualifiers in 15x10 fit the rear without grinding also, but IDK if i trust someone who probably never had personal dealings with the 4th gen.

i've used most of the affordable drag/15s and have needed a little grindage with all of them albeit slightly for centerlines. If you're going to run a drag setup and don't buy Bogarts or the like, expect to grind because its all custom application at that point. A little grinding won't hurt you or your brakes...might mess of the pretty red paint (me) but won't hurt.
I just ground a lot for Greg Welds, but most are doable w/ a small amount.
I like the centerline drag wheel series -stylish and affordable, and fit better than most.

My 15x8.5s fit without grinding, but the 5.5" backspace didn't sit right with me, so I bought Weld Prostars in 15x10 and ground my brakes, then read about the people who have wrecked their cars due to ground down brake failures, and bought Welds new R/T wheels that fit over stock brakes with no grinding.

And the 15x8.5's, what kind on wheels were those? I just plan on running a 275 or maybe a 295 for now so a 8.5 with no grinding is alright with me.
And what do you guys think about the tech at centerline that said the 15x10qualifiers should work without grinding on the rear?

I'm alittle confused. I like your setup alot with the big wheel in the front, but are you saying you bought 4 R/T wheels or just the 2 in the front?

Guys, look at the Billet Specialties Ultra Lites, in the 15x10 iteration they are ~ 16 lbs. Not the lightest, but light. No GRINDING!!!!! SFI approved, no concern about wheel failures as with other mfrs light wheels.What does it take for you guys to understand these are a great wheel!!!!!!! AT $200+ they are a bargin for the quality.
