Default Wheels Question

I was wondering if a 15 inch wheel will fit on a 2000 silverado? if so what do i need to do to the caliper?

Not without grinding the hell out of the caliper. I would really suggest sticking with 16" rims or larger if you can.

put the calipers in really cold water to make em shrink. then the 15's should fit fine Stick with 16's, I have 17's and they work pretty good, I had a problem with the brake caliper hitting the valve stem on the rims, but that was fixed immediately. BTW why do you want 15's??
