Default Question on 15" drag rim

Im looking for two 15 x 10" rim for my 00 Ws6 to use at the track. Im looking to use a 28" tall slick and i need the correct rim for this. The problem is I dont know what kind of rim I can use that I wont have to grind the caliper. I was curious if any of Summit's 15" rims would work? Or is my only option to shell out the cash for the expensive rims. I dont care about looks either.

Also what price range would I be looking at for a set or rear rims that don't require any grinding? 15 x 10" Thanks

Summit rims do not come in the right backspace. If you run those rims, you are limited to 15x8s, and you still have to grind a little. The only 15x10s that fit with the correct backspace (7.500") are Weld Racings R/T series wheels, Bogarts, and Billet Specialties. I run the Weld Racing Weldstar R/Ts on my car. They are light, street and strip approved, and look and fit great. They are around 419.99 each.
