Skinnies on a Cobra?

[MustangMikeKy]

Just wondering what different setups people are using to get the 15inch skinnies on the front of cobras. . .

I'm needing some rather quick, so whatever the best way to get them on, please let me know . . .

if grinding is the only way, can someone post a pic of before/after of what needs to be grinding. . .

i wouldn't mind doing a spacer with some longer studs. . .

just let me know,

Mike

I have Bogart D10s on the front. They have a factory installed one inch spacer welded to the back of the wheel to clear the factory brakes. If you wanna run a weld or any other front skinny, then you will have to get bolt on one inch wheel spacers. Hope this helps

So would welds work with just a 1 inch spacer??? is there enough stud left for that?

I use 15x3.5 Prostars with a 1" bolton spacer to clear the brakes, no grinding.

Did you have to change studs, or were you able to use the stock studs?

With a bolt on spacer sometimes you have to trim the factory studs a little bolt the spacer on, then bolt the wheels to the spacer. I really dont like this way, but I see a lot of people doing it with no problems.

Stock studs, just cut of the starter part of the stud with no threads to make it sit flush with the spacer.
