Weld Racing magnum wheels don't fit, HELP!
Just got my new set of Welds 13*8 and they don't fit my 98 DC. I have been grinding down the calipar and still nothing...How much more?

Did you try some spacers first before grinding ?

Re: (FRernesto)
I got mine to fit without the spacers, but then when you turn off the track the tire rolls over on the rim and rubs the spindle. They should fit fine with 1/4" spacers on a 5" backspace.

wth?
I would not jeopordize my life just to fit some rims. I would just run spacers as long as they are not too wide.

Spacers are on the way..To much time grinding, 1/4 spacers is what I got. The welds magnums are 4'' backspace +1/4 spacer they'll stick out a bit. If I don't like it they'll be up for sale....LOL
