Need help on a wheel fitment issue for my 07GT.

I'm seriously thinking about buying some Prostars from a local seller. His rears are 15x10 with a 6.5" backspacing and 15x4 with a 2.25" backspacing. I think these backspacings are ok for the new S-197's right?

Let me know.

Thanks,
Brandon

Are you sure? A guy on SVTperformance.com (S-197) is running some Draglites...

Weld Racing came out with a series of their wheels called XP. It included draglites, prostars and other popular wheels. The XP's had extra clearance to clear the calipers and bigger rotors on newer vehicles. unfortunately they dont produce them anymore, you can only buy them used.

search the forum, you will find others who have said the non XP will not fit. I already asked the same questions a while back.

if you're not set on the Prostar look and would go for the Draglites. I know where you can get a new pair of 15x10s with 5.5 bs
