Default Are these right for a 99 Z28??

Fronts: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-521-5461PS/
Rears: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-521-5861PS/

And also, what size tire would be recommended for these? Going to be mostly street but of course strip too.

Thanks!

Well, my only comment is the first link, the bolt pattern is off. It's 5x4.75 all the way around. Other than that, 15's on an LS1 is probably going to require some grinding.

Oops, copy pasted the wrong 1 for the fronts - thank you for catching that lol (updated)

Grinding what exactly for the 15's? They are only 8" wide in the rear - thanks for the help!
