What bs are your fronts slimbo?

The bs looks good on the back would 4 .5 rub the frame on a stock frame?

i believe rally wheels are a 4 inch b.s. a 275 60 is a pretty wide tire, you will need to do some trimming. i imagine that a 3.5 b.s. wheel will need the inner lip trimmed without the chrome trim, and it's up to you to figure out how to keep the trim. all cars are different though, so maybe some get by without trimming.

I don't know what the deal is, I am about to order wheels too and i don't know to buy 3 1/2" bs or 4 1/2" bs and buy spacers to make them 4" bs for the rear.

seems like alot of posts and people say all of the above ,i can't decide.

i have 15x8 w/3.5 bs
i'm going to swap to a 4.5 bs , occasionally the tire rubs the upperside of the outer wheelwell
looks like i have plenty of room to go in towards the frame
