if you are looking for a strip tire do not go the Crager they are steel and heavy... You can never go wrong with welds they are a supper nice wheel.. Sorry cant help you on the size I need to get some my self though.. are you wanting to do skinnies up front?

i just bought 15x10 and 15x5 prostars. DD is fine but i think its dumb to have race wheels on a stockish/slow car. I believe it was 5in backspacing but i could be wrong

i run welds as a dd the front are 15x6, rear are 15x10.
to put any weld 15" front wheels on your car you will need a 7/16" spacer to clear the brakes
i have the spacer and still had to do very minimal grinding on the front caliper bar.
the fronts have only 1 backspaceing avalible, thinks its 3 1/2"?
on my car i run 5.5" backspace on the rear, some people run 6.5"
i wish that they offered a 6" that would be perfect.
my front tires are 205/70/15
my rears are 26x12-15 mickey thompson sportsmans (the new design) jegs and summit
offer them
here is a couple of pics, not really good angles but its all i have on my computer
