It will definatly clear with the 1 inch spacer

Does this spacer have its own studs for the lugs?

I'd just run 17's and be done with it. Doesn't look stupid at all.

Maybe it's just me, but if you had to gring the caliper to make them fit, you had clearance issues.

But it was a 5 minute fix, literally had to shave off 1/8 of an inch off the caliper, respected them black and wala.

I agree with ya Keith, not a fan of 15/17 combo, but to each his own
