I just got draglites for my car and the backs fit fine, but the skinnys i got for the front are rubbing off the front brakes.. they are 15x3.5.. I was wondering what size spacer i would have to use to push them far enough away so they do not rub without me having to grind any of the brakes.

i believe a 1" spacer is all you need to clear the brakes. post up pics when you're done.
1inch is overkill. he can grind down the bracket enough to clear.

i wasn't sure what brakes he was using on the front. i didn't know if he had upgraded to the 13" cobras to where
i have been told a 1" spacer is required. but he also did initially say he did not want to do any grinding, but i am not aware
of a proper spacer for stock gt brake clearance.

1inch for the cobras, and its just a tiny little spacer if you dont want to grind.

7/16" Spacer is what I use on my GT. On a Cobra a 3/4" Spacer should get the job done.
