So much for being F body specific... i put them on and they are grinding on the rear calipers (i have yet to try the fronts, no tires yet) Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? Time to get the grinder out


Anyway, they do look badass

I had to lightly grind them on the rears but not the fronts.

What size Hoosiers are you two running? Both look awesome. Any inner/outer fender modifications required?

that sucks, you must have some thick brake pads back there.

What tires did you get for the front? I need to get some street skinnies. \you got the rims 15x3.5 15x10?
you have lugnuts and wheel studs yet? Im gona be selling my ARP 12mm studs, and lug nuts for thouse wheels. I went to bigger studs.

Yeah, the rims are 15X2.5 and 15X10.. I already have front studs and McGard lugnuts, i was running weld drag lights a few years back, i still need to pick up tires for the front.

After an hour of "strategic weight removal" the wheels finally fit. I love the way these look, just make sure you or someone you know has a trusty dewalt angle grinder

What part of the caliper did they hit? I only had a slight rubbing issue which 5-10 minutes of grinding per side solved.

It was hitting ever so slightly on the front top of the caliper itself and hitting pretty good on the 3 "ribs" on the back.

Yes, on the Racestars you have to grind the cooling veins on the backside of the caliper. I get at least 1 PM a week asking about them lol.

My racestars spun freely but you could hear it slightly rub in 1 spot. I just hit the high spots of the calibers, took no time at all.

Are your brake pads low?

That's the tire I ended up putting on my RTS wheels. I daily drive the car and, so far, so good. Of the cheaper frontrunners I have looked at, these seem to be better quality as compared to some others. Still probably not as good as an M/T, though.
