Could this be pulled off?

I'm looking to buy 19 by 10 and 19 by 9 iforged aeros for my 06 coupe. I'd like to have agressive offsets and the staggered lips. At the same time, I want to purchase a full StopTech BBK. I'm not looking to track the car or race it hard, it's mainly for alittle better performance and looks. I was wondering how I could find out if there would be clearence issues with the calipers and which BBK would work best for me. Any feedback is greatly appreciated guys.

Iforged wheels are banned at alot of tracks so you may want to take that into consideration when purchasing

Is i-forged in any way related with HRE?

And to answer the guys question it really depends on what rim you go with. If you are going to be doing 10 in the rear and 9 in the front your probably going to want a +22 offset all the way around and that will be pretty damn agressive...just enough where you wont have to roll the fenders and it will also give you clearance for a BBK. Some rims will have a deep lip with a +22 and some like mine, the volk te37, with a +22 offset wont have much of a lip at all. So the lip is really going to depend on what style rim you go with.

Since Iforged doesn't release offsets, he won't be able to tell what his is anyways.

iForged wheels are custom so just let them know specifically which BBK you have and they will maximize lip and offset while still having clearance for the BBK. I would call Stoptech and see which BBK works for you.

also, keep in mind, Stoptech's are BBK with more clearance than most BBK companies out there. hence the reason while a lot of folks go the Stoptech route. Endless on the other hand, their calipers are like mashed up labia sizes. they can be pretty bulky.
