This is what you have to do to run 15" wheels

Just a little gringing and your good to go. I bought US Wheels 15x10 with a 4" back spacing they stick out a little to far 8" wide would work better. They sell wheels designed for large brakes. The ID is larger deeper into the wheel.

15x8 are 84-5860L

The "L" in the part number is the "Larger Brake Wheel"

May be an 1/8" . I used a 4" angle gringer then hit it with the belt sander. If your going to the dyno day you can check it out up close.

-wheels look good. Get some shots with wheels and tires mounted on the truck with it on the ground. I have to see how it looks.
