Default Welds for the street..Help..

Im wanting to get a weld Prostar to match my rear set for the street..I do not want to run skinny's all the time, what backspacing would I use with a 15X6 or 7? I bought the 15X3 with 1 3/4 BS for the track..Thanks

Even with a spacer you will need to grind the front calipers for anything bigger than 15x4's. If anyone can make a rim that will work, it will be Steve at SJM >>-->

Many of us have 2 sets of rims. Street and Kill sets

I dont want to use spacers with anything and Ive ground the fronts for my skinnys..Just wanting another set for the street, something a littel wider for driving around and highway use..Not wanting to fold over a skinny on an offramp if I decide to get stupid coming onto the highway!!
