Depends mainly on backspacing. I'm running a 15" blackrock wheel and have no issues, but it's also a 3.75" BS. If it doesn't fit, it's a caliper issue which requires grinding down the corners of the caliper. Good excuse to clean them up and paint them anyways.

I've got 15" Steel Procomps, 3.75 BS. They fit without issue but they are close to the caliper. Looks badass.
