Well I need some advice, I just bought a new set of Pro-Stars and tires, 15x10 6.5" BS w/ 325/50 MT Drag Radial on the rear and those fit GREAT. My problem is with the fronts. I didn't wanna run skinnies so I got 15x6" 3.5 BS. Well as you know they hit the calipers, I know I need a 1" spacer but if I install the spacer the wheels are gonna stick out of the whell well.

My ? is, for those of you NOT running skinnies in the front, what size wheel and BS are you using, and do they tuck up into the wheel well? This sucks cuz I got the rears on and now I gotta send the fronts back.

Please help guys.

You can grind the cross bar to get them to fit...you have to basicly REMOVE the WHOLE crossbar though.

Or

swap to 99+ v6-gt twin pistons. The spacer needed is smaller...and if you grind on them and paint them you MAY get them to clear without a spacer. Plus have a better brake setup.

I have the 3.5's skinny pro-stars with 99+ calipers. I have some 7/16th (IIRC) spacers. I think I may be able to get them to run without a spacer after "playing" with one side alittle when I installed them. -- Howerver, you dont want the 3.5's input sorry.
