Prostars Question
Prostars Question I just want to make sure that I have the right size before I buy
15 x 3.5, 5 x 4.75, 1.75" backspacing.
15 x 8, 5 x 4.75, 5.5 " backspacing.
Am I going to have to grind the brakes?
I plan on running 275 50 15 M/t ET street Radials.
What fronts do you guys recommend?
What else am I going to have to buy?
Thanks in advance.

You'll need 1/4" spacers for the fronts. The rears will fit, but a decent amount of grinding is involved around the outer circumference of the calipers.
I run this identical setup, BTW. I use just generic metric tires for the front, like $23/each from Pep Boys. I also run 275/50/15 BFGs for the rear, and cut low 1.6 60' with 12psi. The fronts see about 48psi.

Oh, I just read your sig. These aren't going to be your daily driver wheels, are they? I used mine for street duty on the weekends, and it sucks with the skinnies. You lose all handling and all braking capabilities, with the exception of light duty.

I have 15x4s up front 1 5/8 back space with M/T sportsman tires, on the back I have 15x10s 5 inch back space (I have my rear narrowed 2 inches a side) with 26 11.5 15 M/T ET streets.I have an LT1 so my brakes are a little smaller, I didnt have to grind mine at all.
