Skinnies

Will 26X4.5X15 MT Drag Fronts fit on an LS1? I don't know if they will clear the calipers. Can they be used with spacers? Thanks

Re: Skinnies

The tires are not the issue. The wheels the tires are mounted on are. What front wheels are you using?

Re: Skinnies

I did a bunch of grinding and put cragar Superlite II's on the front for my skinnies. No spacers required. I can fit 26" or 28" tires up there. Just do a little measuring for the backapsace and you should be fine. I have LS1 brakes on the front.
