Race Star Rear 15x10" Fitment

Hey guys, just bought a set of Race Stars. 17x4.5 in the front direct drills, and 15x10 for the rear direct drills. I am wondering if this is the correct brake line kit to use in order to not have to grind anything.

Also I will be running a 275/60r15 Hoosier D.O.T. radial. I am going to be rolling the fenders. Is there anything else I should know about so I don't have a bunch of surprises when the car comes out of storage and race season is supposed to be starting?!

Thanks!

I haven't had any issues with my belt yet. knock on wood. Kurgan comes up to Illinois a couple times a year to tune out of Deans Performance in Saint Charles so I caught him both times while he was in town. He is actually from Chicago area so he is a legend around here. First time from the V3 I bought from him. Second time for the Fore Innovations return fuel system. He got unbelievable numbers out of my car. Getting over 560 RWHP but I had him back it off as I still have the stock bottom end.

thanks man! Make sure when that belt on it is not walking around at all. that can cause issues and I know how big of a pain it is to change a belt with a vortech blower! Good Luck with that!

You'll see the difference in clearence once you get the kit. I had to grind down the top of the calipers to clear the wheels.

I had to grind the hell out of my caliper bolts(banjo bolts) to get my 15x10 7.25bs they clear the calipers just barley.

Same thing I had to do to my 15x10 racestars. I think mine had a 7.5 backspace.
