15" welds on a 96 cobra

[Musclemustang65]

Will 15" welds fit on a stock brake 96 cobra or what would i need to make it fit? (wheel size, spacer size)

Are you talking about the front or back?

I thought the brakes needed a 17 to fit over them?

You can but it requires a Spacer and grinding of the Caliper. Not worth it in my opinion. Just buy the right fronts in the first place. Go with a Weld Draglite XP. I think that's them and you will be fine.

THIS IS FOR A 15" Greg Weld

u can put 17s in the front with no grinding or anything. and i have put 16s in the back never 15s tho

My wording was bad my fault

mild grinding of the caliper...nother major and a 3/4" spacer on the front will allow you to run a 15" rim. The backs should fit with no issue.

what backspacing?

 

[ryclef331]

skinnies on the front only come with one back spacing so thats not an issue. 15x8 use a 5.5" back spacing 15x10 use a 6.5"
