Remove the calipers and you can. I believe you have to do some grinding on the caliper if you want to have brakes.
why? i dont see it saving any weight...
yes you can with correct offset and right width
advantage of the 15" is more availablity for larger diameter front runners [but im sure the hardcore racers knew that]
the main reason im thinking about it is so i can have the same wheels front and back....
i couldent imagine running that narrow of a tire on truck as heavy as ours at 150+...Quote:

the tires were skinny runners and the offset was just right that the tire was just inside the fender, looked good!
If your trucks dropped with spindles it'll be a no go
