Anyone running skinnies up front?

[ImportEater98]

I am interested in buying some welds (15x 3 1/2) for the front of my car, and 15 x 8's for the back. I hear there is some caliper clearence issues i need to deal with when running a skinnie. I have been told that there is no backspacing measurement on a 3 1/2 wheel and i would probably have to run a spacer.....but are the front wheels going to stick outside the fender by doing this? Do i need longer studs? Seems like there has to be a pretty large spacer to clear the caliper. Any info would be helpful, and pics of an SN95 with this setup would be very much appreciated. Thanks

Skinnies

I ran the WELD skinnies on my 93 back in the day but the handling was terrible! They fit with no clearance issue's but I'm not sure with your year.

Yeah the SN95's got big front brakes...so hopefully somebody has the answer out there! Thanks for the input anyhow!

I run weld pro-stars when I go to the track......I have a 7/16'' spacer on the front with stock studs and no problems.......

yup, 7/16th's spacer will make them work. and no, they wont stick out. my cobra handles decently with 3-1/2's on front, but it will push the front end out of a curve if you go to fast.
