For those of you with 20" and Brembos

I am about to get an 04 6mt coupe with the brembo package. I wanted to get 20" wheels but I've been told that without 10mm spacers and longer studs they wil not fit the front. I just wanted to know if anyone here ran that size wheel and what they had to do to fit them. Thanks for any help.

Do a search on what people are running. There are some people on here running 20s with no problems. Typically, you don't need spacers if you get the correct wheel offset.

They are 20x8.5 in front and 20x9.5 in the rear. I guess I just need the offsets to get so I can clear the brakes. Any help would be great.

I gotta go back and find them again. Is there an offset that is standard for cars with brembos? Sorry I come from the Audi world where I am the encyclopedia for them.

Any CUSTOMIZED wheel companies can give you the right offset to clear brembo brakes without spacers: AMISTAD, HRE, Iforged, DPE...

well, 1-pc wheels or replicas usually are produced in 1 offset, therefore, it might need spacers to clear the brembos
