I want to say the GT rotors in the rear are 10"

I have no spacers in the rear. Only the front.

Do you have longer studs?

[BUSTED]

ya i do have 3 inch arp studs i had waiting for my other car but as of right now they seem to be factory length up front and back..... cant i get away with running a diffrent spec. wheel up front so i dont need a spacer??

looks like i have 10" rear rotors.....haha i should have just looked, the brake dust covers are bigger than the rotors by about an inch!

So is that good....just order up 15x10's (6.5 BS) with a set of 28x11.5/15 slicks and they should slap on without a problem?

11.5's will be very close and may take a little "massaging" of the inner wheel well to fit. i went with a 10.5 for that reason. up fron you are basically stuck with a spacer untless you want to for over about 400 bucks a piece for the 17" alumistar fronts. and then you will pay a tonfor the tires for them as well.

some of the wheels have a built in spacer and are specially made for our car, like the ones i think bogart makes. otherwise, to fit a 15" wheel, your gonna need a spacer of some sort. i ended up using a 3.5" stud and a 3/4" spacer to make my welds fit. and even at that i had to massage the brake pads down a little since the caliper still barely grazed the wheels.

i see that this can be a project if you haven't done this before.

the inside of my inner rear tubs are all mashed in .....i noticed that last night when i measured the rear rotors. so if an 11.5 width didnt fit i would be surprised.

did you guys run into problems clearing the rear exhaust tailpipes with the tires? mine look like they had been rubbing/melting the tires at some point, but only about the size of a quarter shiny circle with a rubber ring around it is all.(its a flowmaster catback)....i think thats why jeff goes 10.50's.....that ol' 5.0 flowmaster sound gets you ATLEAST 1.5 sec. quicker down the track. EASY.

If it is a pre 99 rear you may have some rubbing issues. I had to have the tail pipes modified with the 10.5 slick.
