Just installed 2.5" drop spindles and I have 15x8 wheels I have been grinding down some areas on the spindle itself. And the lower control arm. My question is am I doing this right? My weights on my rim hit the bottom of the ball joint. Can I use the weights that stick on the inner rim? Thanks for the help and advice . But I love how she sits. Just waiting on my flip kit and notch.

Everything I've read says you need to grind like that to fit 15x8's. Pics I've seen say you need to grind more. Never done it myself.
