    Has anybody ran a 15" wheel with f body brakes? I got a pair of MT et drags from a buddy. I can get ahold of a pair of Weld draglites. I just dont want to waste time trying to fit them if someone else has already tried it.

    the most likely answer is that they aren't going to fit. they are pretty tight under 16s as it is.

    So they would fit with stock brakes? I could care less about big brakes on a car that barely traps 100mph.

    I was thinking about going with those now. What backspacing and tire are you running?
