New Racestars installed (rears only)

[kirbyg16]

I will be getting the front runners this fall. These are the 15x8 with 275/60 ET Streets.

looks good. You going 15 or 17 up front?

 

[kirbyg16]

Going to go 17's upfront even though I would rather do the 15's. I just don't want to mess with the brakes to make the 15's work.

 

[tedster429]

Either way it will look good.

Exact set up I have, I sold the 275/60 for a 255/60 to help drop some 60ft times.
Be sure the check the lugs ! I had 2 crack and 1 snap in half.

Yea I already ordered the Mcguard lugnuts to replace the crappy ones from racestar.

you just need a 05-10 caliper bracket and rotor....no need to bleed brakes nothing, just swap those out and you can run a 15" racestar....the stopping distance is virtually the same..i did it on mine and now i can run any rim from 05+...its worth it in the long run.....the 275/60/15 on the 8" looks badazz by the way! you have any rubbing issues with the buldge?

Yea I looked at swapping to the 05-10 brakes but I don't want to mainly for trade/selling purposes and the 17's don't look so bad that me want to go that route.
My car is not lowered and I did check my fender wells after some goofing around on them and I did not see any rubbing so far.
