Will Wheelers 15" wheels clear tundra brakes?

Ok, dont flame me, i have read every thread on the tundra brakes, but came upon the wheeler 15" wheels that clear the 16" wheel brakes. will the wheeler 15" wheels clear the tundra brake upgrade? i know that the 16" wheels can be used with spacers or minor trimming. anyone?

anyone physically tried to fit it? theoretically it is a possibility, but i dont know.

i would go with no. just crawled under my junk, and had a peek at the clearance. with my LC wheels, theres maaybe .25" clearance between caliper & wheel. i had to grind out some of the calipers also, as some parts were rubbing on the inside of the spokes. maybe with spacers they can clear calipers, but i doubt 15's will clear diameterwise...

I just emailed wheelers, we'll see what they say, but all they sell for the tundra's are 16's, so I would say no.
