Volk GT-V +24 offset?

I found a thread about this a long time ago, but no concrete answers, will a Volk GT-V 19x9.5 +24 fit up front on an 04 coupe with brembos? If not do I need to run a +30?

thanks

-Brian

It is possible, but not recommended. You may need anywhere from 5-15mm spacer. Volk also offers a +30 or +17 offset if you want it more aggressive and does not require rolling. Ask any of the authorized Volk vendors here. I'm sure they can help you out.

i have gt-7s with +24 offset all round and i was told by many people that u can only do +24 with non brembo brakes and u cant go BBK either. but on the plus side i get a 3.5 inch lip in front and 4 in back...

+24 would be ideal. +17 might cause some issues depending on your drop and tire size.

so basically if you have the Brembos you are stuck with +30 up front. Thats good to know.

BBK clearance depends as much on pad size and spoke design as offset. I have Volk GT-7s (19"x8.5" +23 high disk) and they clear my Rotora 6-pot BBK with plenty of room.

after searching some other posts i found that the +30 offset for the GT-V is very conservative, and actually the +17 seems like a better move as long as you aren't going to drop the car like 2 inches. (this is with the A offset)
