axis mod help please!!

hi i tried searching but I cant find the answer im looking for. Woild anyone be able to tell me if Axis se7en mod wheels 19x8 +35 fronts and 20x10 +38 will clear brembo brakes? A friend of mine had them on a 350z without brembo's and the fit slighty tucked.

Any spacer recommendations?

Offsets sounds a bit too conservative. Try to go mid 20's for a "safe" yet flush look. Not sure if they'll clear brembos, but with spacers, I am sure they will. Any reputable branded spacers with hubs will work fine (Kics, H&R, etc). I had H&R and had to replace my studs for extended ones, which i prefer more over those spacers with embedded studs (a la Kics).

Are you buying your friend's wheels?

Mods don't have much caliper clearance. 20mm all around probably be good.

I was wondering if anyone would buy my rims because of the same thing. I got some rims on my z right after I got it but didn't check the offsets. They are 18x8 18x9 +40 all around. Is that a good offset for the sedan?

Thanks! I was going to get 15mm spacers but I'll go with the 20mm now.

Yes I am buying my friends wheels.

Just for people's info, the front (not sure about the rear) Axis mods DO NOT have recesses for the studs on 20+ mm spacers, looks like I'm gonna have to throw on the spacers and then grind down the stock studs ...

Yeah, I ended up with 25mm spacers in the front, I'm gonna go with 15mm in the back with a reduction of -ve camber (cos I'm lowered) ... I'll post pics of the fronts tonight ...

Offsets are way too conservetive. Offsets for coupes with Brembos shouls be low 20's at least.

The ground to fender height right now is 26.75 inches all around, not sure how much that is lower than stock.

There are currently no spacers in the back, I'm planning on putting 15mm spacers in the rear and reducing the -ve camber somewhat ...
