15" Racestars, fitment?

[Mr.Venom]

This isn't a question "if" a 15 inch wheel will fit, I know it requires grinding and possibly a spacer, etc.

My question is more directed at who actually HAS made a 15x8 or 15x10 race star fit with IRS? Just looking for some tips and personal experience. Preferably if you've made this wheel work. I already purchased 17x4.5 racestar skinnies and want matching rears. So before I pull the trigger, I'd like a bit more homework done.

And yes, I have searched, high and low for answers. :lol1:

15 x 8 would probably b a Lil easier depending on back space . I have 15x10 and takes alot of grinding . My Bango bolt is ground to nothing . Installed Russell brake lines had to grind on it Lil too . I got ftbr toe links because tool less grinding that stock tie rods . A pretty good piece has to b grinded of knuckle to . Will look for pics but not sure if still have them . I posted done in another thread while back

They will fit with the low profile irs bolt and some grinding. Had them on my cobra for a while. I swapped to SRA and used my same brakes so the fitment was the same. I have 15x10s. Also you may want to buy a pair of extra banjo bolts just in case u go too far. I did the first time and had a very small leak. 2nd go around no leaks for the last 4 ish years.

15x10 with the 6.5" BS correct? Any pics of what you grinded and how it fits on the car now?

Bump.

There is no grinding with Mm brake lines. 15x8 will be your best bet with minimal grinding

MM Stainless Brake Hose Kit, 1999-04 IRS Cobra, rear [MMBK9R] : Maximum Motorsports, the Latemodel Mustang Performance Suspension Leader!

This sufficient?

Damn that still looks close. Did you have to grind down the MM lines too?

Really didn't need to but I shaved a hair off it,
