Spacers needed for Welds?

Getting a set of Weld Draglites for the front wheels.

What size do I need? I have 15" Welds on the back already. Do I need 15x3.5? Do I need spacers to clear LS1 front calipers?

Anyone have part numbers?

I have the LS1 front brakes and in the process of putting in the 3.5" draglites. You can put them one without spacers if you grind the calipers or put in 5/16" spacers and don't or slightly grind. You might also want to get longer wheel studs with the spacers. Here are the Summit part numbers:
ARP-100-7708 wheel studs
MRG-2371 spacers

Re: Spacers needed for Welds?

Thanx dude. I had to grind the fins off the back wheels. Is it the same thing for the fronts? Just grinding off the fins?

So you don't need wheel studs if you don't use the spacers correct?
