think it'll be anyworse then now? i ordered 15x3.5 stars from gregweld..even with 2 5/16 spaces on the wheel it still hit the caliper..i was hoping with the wider wheel(17x4.5), it would give more clearence for caliper to not hit..or is my theory false? could i get away with a racelite 17" and a 5/16 spacer?
thanks
thanks
it isnt necessarily the BS but also the shape of the mounting pad of the wheel on the hub space.
without seeing a wheel in person, if i were to guess i would say your still gonna run into a problem
i can tell you from personal experience with my holeshots that there is ALOT of material that can come off the front calipers
edit: i was referring to ls brakes. dont have any experience with lt brakes
