MT Sportsman S/R 26x6x15 front, MT ET Street Radial 295/55/15. I had previously removed my bumpstops, and done BFH, and my fenders are rolled, so I had no fitment issues. I DID grind a tiny bit off my rear calipers, because it was SO close that a sheet of paper wouldn't even fit between the caliper and the wheel. 20 seconds of grinding and then I felt a lot better about it lol

Will i need to do the BFH mod, roll fenders? I've been trying to stay away from grinding calipers but i guess thats what it takes to go fast. I just looked up those front runners and they are kinda pricey (guess i've never looked up what the cost before). How is traction now? Any place you recommend getting tires / racestars from?

I bought the wheels from Jim's Racing Tires, and the tires are from our sponsor RPM, cheapest I could find anywhere!
another note.... I have to run these unbalanced because even the thinnest stick-on wheel weights I could find hit the caliper and rip right off. Luckily there is only a slight vibration between 40-50 and that's it
