Will this fit? - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

ScreamingMach46 · 05-01-2009, 09:06 PM

Im wondering if I could fit a 15x10 Summit Star Wheel? Im not sure what DR will fit, I noticed a 325/50R15, a 315/60R15, a 295/65R15, and a 275/50R15 MT ET Street. What would I have to do to make it fit? I am planning on building the rear end at the same time and going with 31-spline axles and 4.10 or 4.30s? Is all this over kill? Would I be fine w/ a 15x8 wheel and 275/50R15. My car is not lowered and the fenders aren't rolled.

well i thinks its gonna depend on the backspacing of the wheel to know if its gonna fit or not.... at the minimum your gonna need GT or modified brakes in the rear...

They come in 4.5", 5.5", and 6.5" backspacing.

Here are the tire options for a 10" wide wheel.

Im guessing with the widest 10" wide tire being a 295 its not going to be beneficial since there will be added weight with the wider 10" w/ 295/60 over the 8" w/ 275/50.

Or grin a little on the rear brake caliper and or banjo fitting. I would be more worried about rubbing the quad shock or the fender. I have no idea what kind of backspacing you need to get that all under their.

BTW I think a 10" drag is a little over the top considering your mods, unless you are hiding something. I ran a 10.5 ET Street (8" contact patch) and I was hooking hard with 5,100 launches.

Your probably right. I guess a 15x8 w/ 275/50 would be enough. I just hate not having traction and I love the look of a huge tires.

This is the combo I got with a 15X8 star wheel and MT DRs:

LOL you posted that in my other wheel and tire thread. It is a great combo that im going to go with since the 15x10 seems like a challenge.
