Re: Wheels hitting caliper brackets
By the time Outlaws came out all wheels were made for disc brakes. Never heard of this problem before. I've put 15" wheels on K/20s and it's the caliper,along the casting seam,that needs grinding. Never heard of grinding the brackets. I never even knew what the backspacing was on any wheel I ran in all these years. You just bought by the diameter and width. I sold wheels to people with other brand trucks and never had any that said they didn't fit. This is a mystery. If these are 10" I'm sure they have a RWD Offset. Back before wheel got all queer the aftermarket made one size fits all. It didn't make sense to make dozens of variations. Still doesn't but idiots are winning these days  . Are your ball-joints in good shape? I dunno,I'm at a loss
