stop tech bbk w/17" OEM'S ?

Does anybody have the 13" BBK with 17 or 18 OEM wheels? Currently have BBK with 20" aftermarket wheels but had to use a 20mm spacer. Not liking the set-up so may go back to oem until I find what will work w/o spacers.

13" BBK will *not* fit with any 17" rims. it *may* fit with 18" rims - you need to try the fitment templates posted on stoptech's web site to see if stock 18" rims will fit.

thanks. Looks like I'll be selling the 17's and the aftermarket 20's.

That is not totally true the 13" 332mm brakes will fit 17" wheels as long as the offset is right. Having said that the stock 17"s with +45 offset do not work I've tested with the stoptech template. The diameter / curcumference of at 17" rim provides enough clearances just offset that messes things up. You will need at least a 1.5" of space from the rotor hat to the spokes with clear most of the BBKs.

I had the 13" kit on my 350Z with the 17" wheels and they fit (barely), the G 17" will not work...

One thing I may do is pick up a set of 17" Z wheels for cheap, just to have in case I need them.

I'll trade someone 5xG 17" wheels and tires for 4xZ 17"s Thats the only thing that is preventing me from a BBK. I have my 17"s as my winter setup and don't want to drop a pile of cash on another set of wheels for winter just to be able to fit bigger brakes.. arg.
