15X4 w/ 165-65 7/16" spacer and I grinded the crossbar under the "U" section of the caliper.
15X8 6.5" BS w/ 275-50 555R's

Mario hooked me up with the same link when I was doing mine. Helpful site to look at when doing it.
Oh say bye...bye to COBRA brakes if you have them! That was the worst part of the deal, but hey it was worth the weight savings.

I see you used a 7/16" spacer

Do you think you could have made them fit OK without the spacer?

Grady according to the article he grinded the entire crossbar off to run without the spacer. I think that's the only way to make them work is by removing most if not all the bar off.

I had to remove the whole bar and even grinding on the caliper itself a little. That alone was still rubbing inside the wheel so I bought a 7/32in spacer and it cleared fine AFTER.

Maybe if you remove the whole cross bar and grind down the face of the caliper.
