hello everyone,

I have a quick question. I have the Akebono bbk set up in the front only right now and I think its time for me to get a nice set of wheels, but i don't know what offset I need to clear my brakes and still look flush.
Currently I am looking into xxr 521, 18x8.5 front with +30 and 18.10 rear with a +25. I just need to know if I buy these will i have a problem with clearance?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.


Here is the link to website for the wheels I want

evening bump..... any wheel/offset guru's out there to help me out?

 

will the 18's clear the bono's?

I picked up a 19" OEM ray to use as a spare

 

well the stock 19's clear them with no problem but I want aftermarket wheels that will clear my Akebono's

 

i understand that - but i guess i am questioning if 18" will clear... i'm not sure they will, don't recall ever seeing bono's with 18's

 

Well that is the whole reason why i am asking what offset I would need or if i need spacers

 

i had 17's that wouldn't clear- had to sell them... you likely will need spacers, but since i have experience with 18's i can't really comment

+30 and +25 are pretty weak offsets for a coupe - i seriously doubt those will clear

 

hmmmm.......yes from the feed back that I am receiving from other forums they say that i will most likely need spacers to A.make them clear my BBK and B. to sit flush on my car.
