There was a guy on here that ran the 15x10 with 5.5 backspacing but if I remember right he had drag brakes on it. You may be able to grind the calipers and make them work

We only offer the F-body specific wheel in a 7.5" bs... the reason being is most guys with a narrow rearend use drag brakes.... you can gring the calipers to make them work just like you would with a weld...

The RT-S is designed to clear the brakes with no mods.
