what 15's have largest id?
im looking to fit 300mm brakes under 15's on my puma.
ideally i want to get genuine ford wheels so im looking into getting a set that have the largest id so i dont have much to shave off calipers.
i got nice 17's on at the mo so no clearance issues there but really wanna go 15

All ford 15s you have to grind the top of the calipers, as for aftermarket most 15s fit fine.

Motorsport stuff like Compomotive MO's are normally good, but 300mm under a 15 is still quite a big ask.
Its very dependant on offset too.

There's a chap on XROC bulletin board selling a set of Ford 7 spoke XR8 alloys, they look like the normal RS 7 spokes but have much bigger clearance for the bigger brakes used on the XR8. He only wants Ł100 for them.
