rear disc & 15" vintiques wont work?
well in preperation for test and tune @ the local i ordered a set of 15" wheel vintiques 5x5 5" bs 10" wide, i was wanting 5.5" backspacing like im runnin on my 22's but they are not available that way. well turns out that should have been the least of my worries, when i done the frame off on my truck i upgraded to wilwood d52 calipers and astro van rotors on the rear axle. and of course beings i put coy 22's on the rear to finish off the rebuild i didnt run into any issues with the calipers rubbing the wheels, well now i have. so the question is all of you fellow racers w/ rear disc 5 on 5 pattern what wheels are you running or how did you all solve this problem?
thanks, skeeterbug

Re: rear disc & 15" vintiques wont work?
Post up some pics of where the interference is. The D52's fit within a factory 15" disc brake type wheel up front so it should work for the rear as well.

I did a C-5 rear disc conversion and they fit under a factory steel wheel with a small spacer.. or grind the caliper bracket down just a bit.
