    15" OZ turbo (2 piece) Clearance over massive brake kit?

    Anyone have a set of oz turbos they can test or anyone know if these will fit over the Wilwood street/sport brake kit from Massive? I assume a spacer may be needed, any clues would be great!

    Like these wheels


    With these brakes:



    Thanks!

    I think you are going to be out of luck - The OZ Turbo use BBS hardware (lips and bolts) so will have a pretty similar amount of room behind them as a BBS RS of similar specs.

    I have tried to put the UUC brake caliper clearance cutout in the back of a set of RS001 (15x7 +25) and there is nowhere near enough room - the nuts on the back touch the caliper... Also the way that the barrel on an RS steps in means no matter how big a spacer you run, you wont fit a 300mm rotor with caliper in it....

      Thankyou for the reply, after a further look yeh it appears they are more or less the same design as 2 price rm's. unlike the RS though I don't believe there are nuts on the back since I think the barrels are threaded.. so maybe that would help with some space?

      Do you suppose the 280mm kit would stand a chance?

        The problem you will have is that it will be too close to accurately measure without bolting them onto the car...

        The 280mm setup will probably depend on the caliper style, as when the barrel goes towards the centre of the wheel it steps in down to about a 13" diameter. Unless you are able to space the wheel outwards enough you will likely still have issues.

        I run redrilled RS101 in 15x8.5 +6 (the centre is identical to RS001 e30 spec apart from stud pattern) and there is about 3-4mm of space between the standard caliper and the spokes of the wheel...
