i have 15's on mine not sport though grind a little off the caliber and your good to go.

 

where abouts on the caliper did you have to grind off?

 

i just put my wheel on and spin it slowly and when it hits just run it back and forth a little bit and it will make a mark on your caliber then you grind it some and try it again until it doesn't hit anymore and then grind a little more. but make sure you check all 4 wheels oin both sides so when you rotate you wont have any problems! good luck

 

im new to this forum, got a question i am tryin to get 15" rims to fit and i have the 2001 dodge ram sport 4x4 and i have the 17 inch rims for stock but i tried the 15 inch rims andthe calipers rub on the back of the rim, the rims are deepdish but they just need a bit more room and u said grind the calipers to make them stop rubbin well that doesnt hurt anything does it? no problems with doin that just dont want to screwsomethin up

I ground mine down over 9 years ago and havnt had an issue yet. Its not like you have to remove half the caliper... just a 1/8-3/16's of an inch or so.

 

mine is a 95 and the wheels in my sig are 15s with no grinding

 

Yeah, the main issue is with the dual piston calipers (yours are single). Most 15" steel wheels will clear the dual piston units, as well as some aluminums, but the majority of the aluminums will rub slightly.

My brother had a set of 15" American Racing aluminum wheels which cleared his dual pistons calipers. It really just depends on the wheel... but I guarantee it will be dang close if they don't rub.

 

Caliper clearence has alot to do with backspacing on the wheel. Not only does it effect how much or little the tires stick out, but also the size of the open area on the back side of the wheel. Rim design has alot to do with it as well. But as previously posted, you can shave a small amount off the caliper with no ill effects. We have to sometimes "modify" our racing brake calipers to clear for different backspacings on wheels.

 

i have run the medalist mud kings before. even when the tread got down to about no tread at all, they would still rip through the mud. and they are quiet on the road, and doesnt suck up MPG's

 

I got 15" rims on my truck, as for cheap mud ties I don't know of any of those.
