Re: Will 15x8s clear disk brakes?

Hmmm - like the impala adapters, I wonder if the scarebird c10 adapters are designed to clear factory steel wheels.

If it is a disc wheel then yes!

Thanks all for the replys. I check and my wheels appear to be the later welded style. I went forward with ordering the kit so we will see how the install goes.

Re: Will 15x8s clear disk brakes?

Since you guys are on the subject, do you think a 16" six lug wheel from a 68 would work on disc brakes?

I'm planning on running the CPP 6 lug disc conversion rotors with 71 calipers.

Thanks.
