hey guys, what's the smallest rim size you can run on the rear of a hemi? I just got a set of 16" slicks but I have to shave the rear calipers for them to fit, which are a PTA to do. I rather just swap out to the hemi rear calipers if they clear. Thanks for any help .

16s on a hemi also need the calipers shaved to get them to fit

Smallest you can fit without modification is a 17" wheel. I also had to shave my rear calipers on my 03 to clear a set of 16" Hoosiers.
