Close call !

Just got done putting my 19" Maya's on my car. Talk about close to your Brembo's on the front. Reading other threads some wheels are very close to the Brembo's. Hope this does not cause any issues down the road.

Pics or ban! I don't know about the RT5s, but I know that you need 5mm spacers to clear the front Brembos with the STMs.

When my wheels came in they were so close we had to slide a piece of paper between the spoke and caliper, thats how close it is! But all was good.

Sorry for not posting up pics. It was 9pm at night and I don't have a garage. Will post up some pics today. Let me go out and wash it and get it nice and clean. Give me a few hours.

Yah those are close! Think mine are slightly closer.

As long as they dont touch your good to go... we had a customer who ordered HRE's with willwood on his TT, and if you put more the 2 business cards between the spoke and the caliper the wheel wont move!! But as long as they dont touch her perfect.
