Default Got my Greg Welds
Today. It was so nice to take a 15x3.5 wheel and put it up and spin it freely with no grinding and no spacer. Tires will be here tomorrow and they will be on, then pictures!!!!

Not yet. Well they do, but only in a 6.5 backspace, so it will stick out a bit, some people dont mind it, others do. As far as I know they plan to make a 7.5 backspace but it wont be for a while. I think for now Im going to rock 15x8 5.5 backspace greg welds, with stock calipars. Grinded calipars with the prostars scares me. Alot.

Thanks. Was hoping to get tires today, but called my tire guy and he said he wont have them until tomorrow. So tomorrow it is. Hopefully.

read my last post order the right rims and i bet they fit. The 15x8 with a 5.5 backspacing are not out yet. I've stated the many times . You cant expect a 15x8 4.5 backspacing with no offset to fit. The 15x8 5.5 backspacing have a positive 25mm offset. diff

Wow this thread is old! Hahah, I ordered mine from my work, but you guys can order them through Summit, or through me, if I become a vendor here.

PS here is a better picture with them actually on the car with tires.

When you decide to switch tires/rims next month let me know. I may be in the market for a tire/rim setup like you and the Trigger-man next year. May as well pick your sloppy seconds.

Hahah I'll let you know. Your welcome to borrow mine whenever. But after my trans swap/rear end is done, I think my next set will be the Billet Specialties.
