I was just looking at my 99 and it looks like skinnies would work, lower balljoint stud could be ground but it probably wont be an issue with such narrow wheels.

really depends on the wheel, but you can get them on there with a little grinding if they do rub.

Bogart will put the wheel to whatever offset you want, if you are buying new.

I havent looked but do they even make racing skinnies for the front for larger than 15" wheels? Also what is the load rating of skinny front drag tires, hope it's high enough...
