Damn ... and I thought "bolt-on with no grinding"/"fits late model f-body calipers" meant just that .... bolt them on with no grinding of the calipers. I guess that's like "they" say "17x11 ZR1's with 315/35's bolt right on too ... not mine! Oh well, Race Stars are still the best priced, least hassle drag wheels out there.

My friend purchased a set of the high dollar Weld RST wheels that states they clear stock F-body brakes. He drove 2 hours to the track and put his slicks on, what do you know he never checked and his wheels rubbed the calipers. Guys it's no big deal to knock off the high spots on your calibers, it honestly takes 5 minutes or less, more like 30 seconds a side.

Had to grind only the passenger side rear caliper, but the driver's side cleared. I agree with the above; took very little time to do and very minimal material was taken off. Just more of an inconvenience than anything.
