Weld Draglite wheel fitment

[dsrtjeeper]

I'm looking for lighter wheels for my '94. I've read that 15x10 Weld Drag Lites require spacers and caliper grinding when using the stock rear brakes. Is this true? Are long wheel studs needed?

I'm looking for a 15x10 that weighs 15lbs or less that bolts right up with no mods.

Thanks.

are you planning on running 15 fronts
widest you can do is 15 x 3 1/4
and 15 x 10 should fit good brake calipers is smaller on the rear
as far as wheel studs you should be good no spacer

17's up front. Are you running these wheels?

On my 05 gt I have 15 x 3 on the front
15 x 10 on the rear pro star almost the same

03 mach 1 same set up

I do have 17 x 3.5 pro star

I believe the brakes are different on those cars so I'm not sure about caliper clearance on my car. Hopefully someone will pop in and verify.
Thanks.

Mine are close to them

Did you install cobra calipers
If not should be good fit

Reread post #1.

Stock rear brakes for a V6/GT or a Cobra?

GT

I've decided against the Draglites. I need a wheel that bolts on without spacers and grinding.

No joke, if you know what you need for backspacing, take a look at Alibaba. There are some great deals on there and they will make you the wheel you need, if you can't find one.
I bought a FlowFormed set of wheels for my Cadillac. They are lighter than the OEM Caddy wheels, and really nice quality.
Chat with them and someone will get you taken care of for sure.
I paid under $600 shipped.

I'll check it out.
Thanks!
