I have the disc brake SN95 rear with the Fox axles. The wheel is a 15x8 Weld with a 5.5 bs. Tire is a 275/60 15 and its tight cause its a GT and the ground effects.

So my question is will a 15x10 Weld fit this car with the 6.5 BS? The car has the factory wheel tubs.

 

from what I have seen it depends on which tires as some 275's measure different not only in width but height also. Now the centerline of the tire will not change going to a 10" rim but the bulge on the tire will. A 8" rim will pull the sides a little more where as the 10" rim lets more of a flat sidewall if you know what I mean. Oh heck just get a bigger hammer also while your at it.

Top of the tire to where it goes in on the sides to the rim is more curved in on a 8" rim but as you widen the rim the side wall will be more of a 90* to the rim and this is the area you will have rub

 

So if the car sits low there will be an issue with the wider rims. I already had to trim the ground effects using a Prostar on a 15x8 5.5 BS. 275/60 MT and Hoosier.
Guess why I see a lot going to the 15x9.. but those are pricey

 

Is your car 5 lug? I have a set of 5 lug Champions with the dimension you inquiring about and they have asome 275/60 mickeys mounted on them. Only thing that may make them a tight fit will be the sn/95 brakes which pushes the wheels out some. Your more than welcome to bolt them on and test fit

 

Thanks Tommy. I just got a hookup on these. 15x9 Welds 5.5 bs

Baller?

Ballad for sure!! 5.5 on 9 will be tough with those brakes I believe....I hope I'm wrong

 

If its fox width and I currently have the Prostars that are 15x8 on a 5.5 you think the 9 won't fit? Or should it have been 6.0 bs?

 

I seen sn95 brmakes I assumed it was sn width!!

 

1inch will be added from hub face....putting wheel out an 1" closer to wheel well.

 

Nah.. that was my first problem. As it had SN95 axles with the Cobra R wheels.

I swapped to the Fox axles and John at All American handled modifying the brackets to move the calipers inward.

I just found out today.. no go on the 5.5 BS on the 15x9. Was easy.. called Weld and verified.

Bummer.. it was a great deal on the wheels..
