Weld Draglite XP 16x8.5 Fitment

[Chappy]

Will a pair of 16x8.5" with 5.5" of backspacing fit the rear of a 03/04 Car with IRS without grinding? Will they have clearance issues with the fenderwell on a lowered car with 26x10.5 ET Streets on them?

Thanks!

I was unaware that Weld was making wheels in 16", thought they were all 15"

They made them for a short period in like the late 90's. Not sure if they fit or not though. I want to say they do because I think I tried to track down a set because of it. I can't swear to it though. My memory is crap anymore.

They stopped making the XPs about two years ago. They did make 16" Draglites as well for a short period of time.
