Sorry to change topics but... I've been always told the brakes on the JK is too big to run a 15 wheel. Is this correct, and did you mod anything to run it?

You can run some 15" wheels with no mods, do a search to answer your questions

As was said, some 15s fit. You just have to do a little research to find which ones. When you do find some that will fit, make sure your tire shop doesn't stack and weights if they use the sticky weights when they balance them or the weights will rub the calipers. My wheels are 15x8 MB72s with 3.75" backspacing.
