Combined 15" wheel Fitment Thread

[RedFire07GT]

So i found a rim shop by me that said they could measure the bore of the JEGS wheel, its 84.4mm and the hub on the car is 70.6mm. Im going to look for some centric rings in them sizez. The racestars wheel bore is only 78mm. So the racestar centric rings wont work with the JEGS.

dude i dont know about the rim shops around you but when i put the 20s from my eclipse to the mustang i needed hub centric rings.all i did was take the car to a rim shop and they had a ton of different size centric rings laying around.just make sure is a place that sell 20 inches and up since the 22s and 24s need them to go on some cars.

i found a place in CA that makes ones to whatever size i need.

Glad you were able to get the correct size before wasting money, hopefully you can now find a good set

I just want to let everyone know the Jegs wheels helt up after a blowout on the interstate. I started a thread didn't want to fill this one up with blowout story. I did post in here because I think it would be nice for someone thinking of getting the Jegs wheels would want to know. I am pleased in the wheels. As of my new tire no so much. lol

[Shaolin Crane]

alright i have a set of 15x10 draglites in a 6.5" backspace can anyone clue me in on how to get them to fit cause there is a shitload of info in this thread and it is difficult to find what i need, car is an 07

Without shortening your axles, those wheels will stick out 1" passed the wheel wheels not counting tires, and will not clear the stock brakes.

i dont care how far they will stick out, they are just track rims, and as far as not clearing the stock brakes, can i shave the calipers?

Should of got 15x8's if you wanted to stay drag lites so they didn't stick out as bad

hope your car doesn't squat too much

Exactly... if the car squats hard it's going to rub on the tire for sure.

Did you get those powder coated or did you buy them like that? They are sweet!!

Well i sold them, im just not gonna be cheap and buy some drag stars or something

 

[screamingstang]

summit FAST FIVES lol...15x4 up front and 15x8 rear...wanted something i could bolt up and go race...now im deciding on which slick combo i want to run

 

[Kipp07GT]

I say just run it like that, should be one helluva spark show!!!! J/K bro, what did you have on there before. ET Drag radials wasnt it? Are you looking to go full slick or back to radials? Since I pulled my charger off, im looking at getting the 15x4 15x8 with Mickey Thompson Street Radials. The new pattern style for everyday driving since I wont be drag racing for a little while. Just like TigerHonaker tire setup on his Racestars.
