Will this clear Akebono BBK?

I was interested in getting the stock Infiniti BBK (Akebono). But I was wondering if it will clear with this wheel setup?

20x9.5 +5 R-Disk
20x10.5 +5 O-Disk

Yes it will, but your going to need to roll rears flat and run a 223/35 and 245/35 or 255/35 tire in the rear

K, with that offset it should. I'm sure the inner barrel will clear but you may want to double-check the spokes.

If i can make it to our next meet, we can do an impromptu fitting on my car or Jeremy's (nice i volunteered for him, ).

I sourced each part individually, it used to come out cheaper that way but it seems most online Infiniti parts vendors have raised their prices. The 2pc front rotors i got at a discount for being in the development group buy. Since you need the brackets, i think Coz/CZP would be your best bet at under $1,700 for the set.

Or, if you can skip the front rotors with his set, i can sell you my unused set of 1pc front rotors for about $125.

Sal and Oscar installed them, but i had to fix some things (rotors were facing the wrong way, used wrong fluid, torqued everything way beyond spec). I also have to reroute the brake lines soon, i think two of them are rubbing with the suspension components at full load. They were pretty good about everything though (and offered to fix the issues, gratis, but i didn't have time). I'm not blaming them for missing these things -- it didn't seem like they were too familiar with G's in general so no biggie.

Cool, I might get the complete set with rotors and everything for $1900, if you don't mind helping me install them? I can help you, and pay you to do it for me?
