ok who is running 15" wheels with 35" tires?? any pics of this and also why 15" wheels???

Absolute

I'm wondering the same thing. I know it would be cheaper to go with 15's as opposed to 17's. But I want to know about performance and off-camber situations. And I know there's a thread about which 15's work, which don't. I'll be buying soon and haven't decided.

Curiosity

Tons of pics of this setup on this forum... just try searching.

My reasons,
1)35's cost a lot less on a 15" rim
2)they have a bit more sidewall flex on a 15" rim
3)tires available in load range C

There are negatives as well, 17" rim will give a bit more stability and most people think they look better. Probably more +'s to 17" rims that I haven't mentioned.

Did you have to grind your calipers to fit the wheels

I did just a little on the front. If it scares you to grind em, just put on a wheel w/ a little less backspacing. The soft 8's have 4" bs so they rub on most jk's.
