What do you have to do to fit 15in rims on the back of a gen2. I heard you shave the calipers but don't know if it is true. PLanning on buying another L:twitch: soon:burnout:

You do have to shave them. And quite a bit i might add. If you want some slicks let me know I have a pair on lightning rims I would sell. I have kind of gotten out of the whole "drag" thing.

It is about .060" of metal and it a lot of work. I would just run 16" rims:tu:

I have some 18in slicks too but was thinking of doing 15in. but I guess it is too much work. the 15 in. slicks I always see but never see any 16in on ebay or on any boards. what would you use to shave them down.I was thinking it might be a cool idea then paint the calipers.:hammer:
