Ok guys i want the 15in rallye rims on my truck but the ones on her now need 1/4in spacers in the front to clear the spindle what rallyes can i use that clear the front suspension with no spacer or rubbing and can accept a trim ring.

you'll have to trim the lip of the LCA back a bit, and possibily grind down the tie rod a tad. 15's are hard to use with a 4" drop in the front. it can be done though. a spacer may be a good idea, but i normally wouldn't use them

Yeah i grinded the lcas down that was no biggie didnt have to take much at all my problem is the tierods i dont want to grind the tierod and i want that little extra 1/4in or so to stick out closer to the fender. Im running spacers now and they work great i popped some longer studs in there for extra security but i still feel a little unsafe with em , ya know. Anyone know if the steelies from like a caprice or impala have that little less backspacing to clear w/o spacers?

Thought they were 5on5. Anyone know which cars/trucks had the 5on5 pattern?

hey :jackass: the capriice and impala are the same bolt pattern, call me crazy but have you ever seen a set of Imapla ss wheels on FSC cause I see them all the time. As far as the back spacing there I have no clue on the steelies.
