Default Anyone who runs or wants Centerline Telstars

Ive read that centerline doesn't sell 15x10 in our BS but on the actual centerline website they say they can make a 15x10 with up to 7'' BS. I know everybody usually runs 7.5 BS on draglites, prostars, etc but ive seen some people run 6.5'' BS witch gives a deeper dish and in return looks better. So does anyone have the 15x10's with 6.5'' or 7'' BS? What BS do you recommend? Or should i just get 15x8's with 5'' bs since i know they will work without problems? The wheels are also cheaper then buying from Jegs or summit.

Telstars wont fit LS1 brakes. LOTS of grinding. Way more than welds-But will fit LT brakes.

15x8 with 5" bs will stick out a 1/2" as well .. the x 8s with 5.5 are dead lined up with the top of the fender.

6.5 will look goofy. Most of the time you see someone with 6.5s saying they are great and whatever are just trying to convince themselves by taking myspace picture angles to make them look ok.

if you have a narrowed rear end you could get away with the 6.5 back spacing, if you look at my profile you will see 15x4 and 15x8 on my TA they can fit over LS1 brakes with a TON of grinding but it is possible, they look really dumb on a camaro with only 5" back spacing, fortunately the TA has wider rear fenders that lets them tuck more into the wheel well, I had the wheels back on my car in 04 and 05, they looked great on the car, but are heavy and a PITA to get on, looking back i wish i would have just gone with some pro stars, and now in 2010 there are a ton more options for drag wheels.
