Work vs-xx on Brembos?

I have a 2003 coupe w/ sport suspension and Brembo brakes.
I was just wondering if it was possible to sport 19"s Work vs-xx's on the stock Brembo kit (coupe). I was told that it would not work.
If so, what offset is needed?
Anyone know of a so-cal shop that's reputable selling these?

it will.

depends on what center disk is used... A or R disk should work, though you should talk to rick at status or chris at f1 for full confirmation for your car, as the amount of lip you get is a factor too...

it can work. just make sure theres enough clearance between spoke and caliper as you'll chew your calipers up with debris if theres not.

+1

i have the R disk +28 up front and without the 2-3mm spacer, i don't think it would've fit... the spacer DOES COME WITH THE WHEELS, so don't sweat getting some. even with this spacer, i don't think a small pebble can fit between my calipers and spokes

btw, i went to F1... chris will take care of you.

Get some Volk GTM's - No spacers needed.
