The car is a daily driver and I need an extra set of wheels to throw a drag radial on. Eventually, when I'm done with school, the car will have a drag set-up. I have some friends with extra wheels that they want to sell, but why spend the money twice if I'm going to eventually look for a 15" lightweight wheel anyway, right?

The goal is to not use spacers and do minimal grinding...

Rear: What backspacing would I need for a 15x9.25? A 15x10.25?

Front: Is it even possible to clear the front brakes with a 15" wheel? What backspacing for a 17x5.5 or 17x6?

 

You need a 15x10 7.5 backspace to clear stock brakes on stock length 10 bolt.

 

The Weld RT-S will clear the factory brakes with a 15x4 front wheel in the medium pad hieght. and a 15x10 with the 7.5 works on the rear. They were made to clear the brakes and bolt right up.

 

This is what I thought...thanks for the confirmation. What about the front backspacing for a 15x5 RT-S?

Also, where is a good place to pick these up from for a decent price?

 

Jim's Racing Tires in Baltimore may have these on the floor.
