15x8 with 4.5 BS and you have to grind the toe link knuckle to fit. If you do a search you'll find a pic of someones knuckle I'm talking about.

If you dont like the idea of having to grind anything on your car, I went with Bogarts, 16x10 rear w/ 6.5 BS and 15x3.5 front custom made to fit our cars with big brakes. Rear tires are 28x12.5x16 ET Streets. No grinding needed, bolt right on.

The rear tire is 26x11.5. Fronts are MT sportsman front runners. No spacers needed for the back. I do run a 1" bolt on spacer up front to clear those brakes though.

Greg. Yea the 275/50 is real close to the 26x11.5. I got the front spacer off of e-bay new for around $40-50 I think.
