Big brake kit friendly wheels

[dmoney(AB)]

Since I have a BBK on front and rear now, and my brocks won't fit without spacers, I'm in the market for some wheels.

I searched and couldn't find much on this topic of bbk friendly wheels.

I currently own a set of 17x8.5 and 17x10 brock b1 and will trade for something that will fit.

Please post up BBK friendly wheels.

it would help to know what bbk you're running. width and size.

I've got a 330mm IE kit (their old Corvette kit) and 17" supermax 006's fit well. Lots of hate for sportmax on this site but the 006 looks decent on E30s

310mm c4 corvette calipers Ireland engineering in rear

2 questions
a) what size wheel do you want to run (16 or 17)
b) how much do you want to spend

There's a fair bit that fits, some of it's reasonably priced and some that is not cheap

I'd like to run 17s
Price is wide open
If I live em I could spend up to 4k if I wanted to
But less money on wheels means more money on go fast goodies for the 2jz

Ok well I just had some Forgeline wheels custom made in a 17x7.5.
I took the measurements of my caliper and rotor when attached to the car and they made them fit.
These run about $1000 ea, so there's your budget done.

On a cheaper route, Work can custom made the Meister S1 2 piece wheel to clear an SL6R caliper without too much hassle. Custom works cost about $2400 the set in Aus, so probably similar there.

Another route is Fikse. Like Forgeline and Fikse, send them what you need to clear and they will make you something.

"Off the shelf" wheels O.Z Allegrita HLT in 16x7 and 17x7 fit*. They are ET 37. I run a 15mm spacer with these O.Z and they are awesome. Super, super light and about $240 each. These O.Z are my track wheels.

You didn't really mention if you want to run spacers or not. The big plus for the Forgeline, Fikse or Work route is you will need no spacer and fit is exactly how you want it. You pay for this.

If not bothered by spacers then a couple of JDM wheels also fit. You can run a Volk CE28 and TE37 in 17x7. You need to run up to 20mm spacers though, which I don't personally like.

For reference....
Forgeline


O.Z





For less than a quarter what I paid for the Forgelines, the O.Z are a great wheel

Should also mention custom CCW's run for about $550 each, also made to fit.

ugh, i wish I had my cabrio shell already, or maybe I should just say fuck it and order some of those wheels.

bumping this for any info.
looking into cheap wheels to tide me over for now.
ESM 002 17x8.5 and 17x10, possibly clear a bbk?
