Coupe wheels and BBK

Will I have any issues running F BBK and rear stock brembo on my sedan with coupe 18".?? This would be a winter setup while I have the 19" for nice weather. Anyone run that set up ???

You should have no problem since the coupe with the brembo use those wheels anyways. I am running my stock 17 with a 5mm space which makes it a 40 offset and these alittle room, but with the coupe 18 at a 30 should not be a problem like I said. But if I am wrong someone correct me quick.

I wonder if he could even get away with using the Z 17s? Would make buying snow tires that much cheaper.

You should be able to. The oem kit is a 12.8" rotor with 4/2 pot and will clear 17's.

I got the Gran Turismo kit 14" 2pcs rotors, it looks huge, well the calipers do. I have my stock 03 17s also. I figure I get 18s cheap and use them as winter set up. I was planning on using 15mm or 20mm spacers on the Axis just to push them out a bit.

The Brembo 14" (355) kit won't fit with 17" wheels...
Do you mean the 332mm kit?
