That's stock rims though... clearance on aftermarket rims may vary, but it shouldn't be a problem.

I've got a set of 83 Z28 (stock) 15" rims on my red IROC (stock disc brake rear end) right now. Doesn't seem to be any clearance issues.

If trying to use non-OEM wheels....15" Draglites will not clear PBR calipers from a 9 bolt unless you grind down the fins on the back of the caliper.
