Default weld 15x8s on front...possible?

i have draglites w/ slicks & skinnies. the rear calipars are already ground but my question is this: would 15x8 prostars clear on the front? i would like to get 15x10 prostars and run 325s and then put the 15x8s up front as my main rims.


thanks
will

yes a local guy here in oklahoma

has 15x8 weld prostars up front

Check out his add on here

pics and everything!

https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...light=oklahoma

I know him and personally saw them on his car

and they look great! well within the fender wells

I didn't think it was possible

but he did it

he said it involved lots of grinding!!

I have no idea why hes trying to trade the rims now

they look killer on his car. the photos dont do them justice

the stance looks awesome!
