Im having a heart attack...

A couple weeks ago i was asking around for front wheel and tire sizes so I could order up a set of Weld Pro Stars with tires from Summit.

Some d bag on here told me to get:
15X5
5X4.5
13 Offset
3.5 Backspace

Something is seriously wrong!!! They bottom out on the caliper before even one thread comes out the stud hole!!! IM PISSED...

The sticker on the box says:

If you mount tires on these wheels you own them!!

Now im stuck with a $600 set of front wheels and tires i cant use.


Is there a way to setup some kind of spacer or something or are they completley useless??

Should have measured for it yourself.

Now do the measuring and see if a spacer will rectify the problem.

well, that sure as **** wasnt me that you asked.. because I have never lead you astray.

I run
Rim Diameter (in): 15 in.
Rim Width (in): 4.00 in.
Backspacing (in): 1.750 in.
Offset (mm): -19.00mm
and it required a 3mm spacer to clear my calipers.

again, just wondering, but why didnt you ask me

I had a simialar issue but it just barely touched and a MM 1/4 spacer cured my issue.

I remember you were asking about wheels sizes, but I don't remember seeing where anybody told you that a 3.5" backspacing would work. Not trying to sound like a smart *** or anything, but did the tires comes pre-mounted and if not why didn't you check the wheel fitment before you had the tires mounted after reading the sticker on the box??? I am willing to bet it will take over 1" of spacing to get them to fit and then your getting into dangerous territory with spacers.

I have to run a small spacer to clear my caliper
