they look very nice man. looks like you were able to just use stock lug nuts as well which also means maybe you didnt have to get longer studs up front? wow, seems like these are the way to go.

One (Welds), you have to grind almost half of the caliper off to the get the rears fit. The Summit wheels, just tiny bit of grinding w/ LS1 style rear brake calipers.

thanks. yea i had welds on my old mustang and they were just a bit lighter then these. the summits are one piece. i think they are stronger if you want to drive with them on the street. and i didnt have to shave down anything to be honest. i thought i was but did touch a thing becaust it never touch the caliper.

Looks great, i have mine, just waiting to sell my 17"s (with fairly new coopers) so i can afford some 275/50/15 MTs, i mocked my rears up too & they didn't hit, whats nice about these are the price, i paid 470.00 to the door with a Gorilla lug kit (27.00), plus they are safe for street use being a one piece unit, the finish is very nice (picture in catalog do them no justice) & the packing is superb.

wwmost, how do those 275/50s fit on the 15/8s? How's the feetprint?

Do you have an adjustable panhard bar? Looks like the drivers side sticks out further then the passenger? Looks good to me, I'm going with Summit as well on my project so I was excited to see how goo d they looked on your car.

The wheels look good, but get yourself some closed end chrome lugs to add the finishing touch.

good to hear they fit with little to no caliper issues
