Looking for Advice on 15in Rear Weld RT-S Wheels

[blackedout06]

Hey guys, I have been trying to figure out the best configuration for when I purchase some 15in Weld RT-S rear wheels for my 04 Cobra which has the stock IRS. I looked through a number of threads and realize I may need to do some grinding on the IRS, but would like to see pictures along with wheel specs before I make a decision. On some of the threads people were saying they didn't need to do anything and others were saying they had to grind calipers and the IRS, so it was starting to get confusing lol. I currently am running H&R race springs and want to run a 26in tall tire in the back as well. If your running 15in Weld RT-S wheels on a stock IRS can you please post up a picture of your car with them and the specs for the wheels as well? I am just trying to figure out the proper backspacing and such to avoid as much grinding as possible, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Dont know if you found this one but i hope it helps. also i know there is a bolt on the inside where the head is to tall and either needs replaced with a low profile one or just ground down a bit.

Yeah I have read that, just looking to see different backspacing and width setups on the car that is all.

You could always go with 16" wheels and not make any modifications

from what I have read you can go with a 15X9 by replacing the irs tie rod ends or the whole unit itself. after test fitting a 15x10 wheel myself that looks plasible. with a 15X10 you have to replace the irs tie rod and the banjo bolt and brake lines. you will also have to grind alittle on the lower irs "A arm" where the irs tie rods bolt goes into. I will be doing this in the spring. I already have some 15x10 and we test fitted them last weekend to see what needs to be done. good luck
