    I will try to get pictures sometime, but TRM 15x8 requires filing the ends of the caliper down (like the Kosei's) and the fronts need an 8mm spacer for the spokes to clear. The rears do not need a spacer, this is for the Race kit.

        Forget about fitting any of the kits under BBS RS. If you are lucky, maybe the 280mm kit will work. But no way any of the Sport or Race kit fit the RS.

        Check the profile for the 280x22mm kit




        In regard of the 8" TRM with Race kit - touching and still 10mm gap between hub and wheel.

          So Lee it looks like the Street kit would clear the TRM wheel, correct?

            According to SkinnyVT's test fit (check for a previous post), it still requires some shaving on the calipers' tips.

              Oh I thought he was running a Sport kit, not a Street kit.

                Oups. My bad. Sorry. It seems the Street kit (280x22mm) kit fits "difficult" wheels such as Ronal/ACT LS. I don't see how it wouldn't fit the TRM

                  That's what I was thinking since that caliper looks more compact.

                  I'm sure good pads with the Street Kit would still be a monster upgrade suitable for HPDE use.

                    Lee, how is the firment with 16 in Alpinas? I am interested in a kit but am not giving up alpinas for it.

                      I totally agree with you. That kit is a major upgrade from stock and is suitable for HPDEs with proper pads.

                      Mark (MDV), who's an instructor with BMWCCA, will be running the 280mm kit with Wilwood B compounds. Those B pads have a higher friction coefficient.

                        Hi Sharky.

                        Have you checked the profiles?

                        280mm x 22mm


                        300mm x 21mm

                          Does Wilwood have a Hawk HP+ type equivalent? Or does Wilwood make pads for the stock rear calipers? So you could have the same or similar compounds front and rear?

                            The only way you could get my RSs to fit oveder these is toss your 2" lips and order 1/2" lips and use a 20mm or so spacer to give more room behind the face of the wheels. but it kinda defeats the purpose of having RSs, (I have only tried with RSs that have native 4X100 fitment 001 and 003)



                            Erik

                            P.S. I sold several of the wheels in my collection b/c they won't fit over my new brakes, at first I was keeping them in case I picked up another e30 for a DD but I have decided that if I do pick up another e30 it will have a BBK from lee as well.(I like stopping fast, almost as much as going fast!)

                              That's what I am going to do, albeit with a slightly different caliper (DP6) for longer pad life. I think it will be more than sufficient to win the "hpde cup". ;)

                                Well now someone has posted up the D-Force wheels for $375 shipped! That's nuts! I may buy them just because of how cheap that is.
