Question 4 Anyone Running Welds?

IMPULSERACING · 05-02-2001, 10:11 AM

I'm switching to 5 lug Pro-Stars w/ 3 1/2 front and 15 x 8 1/2 back with 15 x 5 1/2 back spacing. Do I need to run spacers in the front or back?

Don't know muc about backspacing but am running the same rims on my 88 coupe with no spacers and they are fine. Hope this helps.

You won't need any spacers just get the backspacing correct. I have 15x4 and 15x8 centerline convo pros on my 92 and I fit a 28x10.5 MT tire with no problems. I had to roll the fender to get ample clearance, it's a daily driver. It even cleared the quad shocks.
