Brembo Swap + Spare tire fitment Q
I did a search but nothing was found that delt with someone who had the sport package (oem 19's) which comes with an 18in spare.
So like I said above my car came with oem 19's and I did the brembo swap. I think the 19's clear but I'm not even sure on that as I already had VS-XX's installed before the swap. Anyway, I was wanting to know if my spare tire will fit over them? The spare is on an 18in rim. I didn't want to take it out and try to fit it because it's under my subs and amp and would be a bit of a pain. I've been reading that most of the people having the problem have the 17in spare rim. I just didn't know if the 18in spare that came with my car was any different in offset than the 18in spare that comes with the brembo equipped cars.

WOW! lazyness got to the best of you huh?!? Well, Brembo's any 18' will fit over the calipers. Akebonos you need the G37 18' spare to clear them. I hope this answers your question.

Trust me it's a pain in the *** and this Texas heat makes it that much more of a pain. I've been getting up at 6am to do interior work on one of my cars hoping to beat the heat and I still sweat my *** off. Thanks for the reply though.
