Re: will 15's clear disk brakes
should i be the odd ball and say no? it depends really on the offset of the wheel. stock wheels will fit and work fine.

Depends on the backspace. I know a guy running 15"s on a D60 front with disc brakes with very minimal grinding. Think he had about a 2-2.5" backspace.
