A happy side note for those wanting to run 15x8" rally or stock style wheels and typically have clearance issues with the lower A arm lip, around the lower ball joint, these give you enough clearance to not rub or require you to trim the A arm (which I don't like). Here is a pic to show the clearance and I did cycle the steering from lock to lock and no issues anywhere.

Chevy_Mike,

You may want to check the clearance with weight on the suspension. A the suspension goes into bump, that clearance will decrease. I had a similiar situation when I installed the CPP spindles on my truck only to find out after putting the truck down, my lower control arms would contact the wheel before full lock.
