Thanks, 5L5, you do too. 15" and 16" wheels cannot be bolted up to a car with 13" brakes. Many guys like welds and pro-stars, etc. 13" brakes puts those options out if you race your car.

A friend of mine has a Terminator that he races. Runs consistent mid 10's and the first thing he did was ditch his 13" brakes and went with 11" PBR's to run his 17" street wheels and then down to a 15" race wheel.

I was able to fit 15" skinnies on my fox and my s197, granted they hung out of the fender a bit

15's will clear cobra brakes if you know what your doing... need to round the corner of the caliper off and run a 1 inch spacer. bogart sells a wheel for this with the 1 inch spacer welded to the wheel they clear just fine...
