My rear is narrowed 3" on each side I have adjustable phb and offset control arms. It's an 02 transam and I'm hoping I can fit those tires and not have to bfh to much to fit the same wheel/tire setup

Just curious when you guys put the 15x4 up front what back spacing do you get? I have the 15x10 in the rear that's f-body specific and I'm looking at getting the fronts soon but can't find anything saying they will for sure fit. .
Thanks

17x7 with 4.5 BS Front
225/50/17

17×11 with 7.5 BS Rear
315/35/17

Small adjustments with a hammer for reduced chance of rubbage, no modification to bump stops or Fender lips required.

Viking coilovers will be installed on Monday if they arrive as scheduled.

Thanks the car is finally beginning to come together.

Viking coilovers will be here tomorrow, it rides like a 3/4 ton diesel with the factory 120k shocks and springs.

Hoping for positive improvements in ride and handling, while getting the lift kit off.

I got 15x4s & gotta use a 5/16 spacer & the outside brake pads cant be new or caliper touches the wheel. Slightly worn outer pad works. Don't think they make a 15 inch front runner that clears stock calipers. At least not Billet Specialties. IIRC its a 1.75 backspace.
