how much grinding to fit 15's?
#1
Just wondering if anyone knows how much grinding is required to fit 15's I really wanna run 12wide wheels and RIGHT now theres only 1 wheel out there (other then custom wheels) for 16's so im thinking about maybe running 15's also if anyone has pictures of 15's on a NBS that would be cool too

I use 15x10 for my slicks. They stick out from the fender well about 2 inches. I did not have to grind the whole caliper down. Only about 3/4 of it from the outside in. The first one took about 2 1/2 hours. The 2nd one only took about an hour and a half. I would guess 6-8 hours to grind them all the way down. I took off about 1/4-3/8 of an inch.

After I did it I thought it might be easier to grind the caliper mounting brackets holes to move the bracket and the caliper closer to the rotor. There is alot of room.
