I know the Cragar 15" Soft 8s fit over the brake caliper on a KJ however does any one know if these baby's do? Here's a link with a pic. http://www.quadratec.com/products/92600_1XX_B_PG.htm |

Yep, they should fit fine. Great looking wheel. I wanted those but wanted to save some cash so I went with the regular d window steelies. I think Troy used to run those in a 15x8 and they were fine so the 15x7 should be good too. He stopped running them because they rubbed more than he wanted but I think that it was from the 8" rim vs. the 7" , and not on the calipers. They are a simulated street lock, not actual beadlock, but they have a beefy outer rim for better protection offroad. Good wheels. |

Hi CD, yeah been very busy. Back to this old chestnut again. If these rims fit over the calipers then I think I have finally found the solution. Yes KJ119 they are fake beadlocks, look good and add a little more protection but lock nothing except the nuts to the rim! If someone has used these with clearing the caliper please let me know, I need a definate here not maybe or heard of a guy down the street who was talking to his neighbour about a guy he knew that said they worked! Once these are on and working we'll have to do another day trek CD, that little L.O.S.T expedition was a lot of fun! |

Here is a link of Troy's streetlocks in a 16X8 that made his tires rub like I mentioned before ( I misspoke though, I said 15X8 instead of 16). PM him for the 411. http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL1585/6 ... 070802.jpg |

Ash i just got mine mounted in a 16x7 and i love them, and even though the beadlocks are fake the outer rim really helps the tire at low psi. as for the calipers im not sure if a 15 will fit or not. |
