I picked up my 15" Slipstreams years ago and back then they didn't have many sizes locally so what i ended up with is a slight bit different than most which affects what size spacer you end up having to use.

Also depends on what small brake set-up you run whether it is Willwood, Brakeman, or even small Mitsu set-ups.

What i run are 15x7.5 +40 offset and i run a 20mm spacer on the front at the moment i don't run a spacer in the rear but was thinking of doing so when i did the longer arp studs back there but haven't yet and it looks pretty good with the 24.5" M&H slicks

I believe what most people run are 15x7 +35offset and typically a 15mm or 20mm spacer.





BTW i may have my set-up for sale soon and i also have a set of 26" MT ET Drags if you need the extra tire diameter for you gearing lmk if interested

I have the stm drag brake kit. I am on stock gearing so I would want 26" slicks. I like your stance. What suspension you on?

I run the 15x7 + 40 slipstreams with STM small brake kit up front.. 10 mm spacer, stock rear brakes, stock suspension. I would recommend the 15x7 over 7.5 (at least if you plan to run the 26" Hoosier QTP which is 9.5" wide).
