Is there a way to hook up 15x7s?
I really like my rims on my car and have a extra set to mount slicks or drag radials on. If I had those on would I get traction or still spin them. Thanks

What difference do the rims make? They don't sit on the ground. Traction will depend on what tires you use. Rim size is only selected to match the tires.

I also wanted to keep my car looking stock and with the factory 92 camaro 16x8 rims you can't run very wide tires. My cure for this was to make them 10" wide. Now i have 26x11.50-16 MT streets on 10" wide factory style rims on the rear and than the next mod was to make the stock front rims 6" wide and use a 215-60-16 tire on them it's on my car now and looks great.
You can see other rims done at http://www.ws6.com/wheels.htm
