Sorry if this beat to death in here but the search is rejecting all my terms, tie rod ends, 15x10s etc. pretty much every word I put in it says is a commonly used word and is left out of the search criteria
So anyways I'm wanting to fit some 15x10 race star rims on my car. I picked up the longer stainless steel MM brake lines with the low profile banjo bolts and installed them. I already have low profile IRS bolts.
I still need to grind the spindles and the tie rod ends or drag links I think they're called in the rear. However a local guy did something similar recently and had to grind the drag links down so much he went into the center part where the zerk grease fitting is. That makes me worried about structural integrity. Last thing I need is one of those drag links flying apart under WOT.
So I found these that appear to be low profile

Is that what I need? Then all I have to do is grind the spindle and possible roll my fenders.
I was originally getting 15x10 with 6.5" back spacing but the local Race Star shop talked me into 15x10 with 6.25" back spacing and said it was better for the IRS and if I didn't like the fit so much they would at no charge machine down the center hub of the rim to 6.5" backspacing so I have nothing to loose.
What's the biggest tire I can fit on there? I'll start with a Mickey Thompson drag radial.
Thanks
Malcolm
