Re: Dc5R Brembos on 06 Type S ?
there is a reason the dc5 type-r has a different offset to the wheels, its to keep the center line of the tire in line with where its supose to be on the car...I could go on for pages on slipangles....but most people do not give a rats butt about that....you want the car to handle like a type-r, get the right offset wheels

Re: Dc5R Brembos on 06 Type S ?
They should fit over the brakes( thats why the rotor hats look so different) but you will have fender clearance problems....and because you are killing the scrub radius, your brakeing and cornering will be reduced so whats the point? The reason people are not replying is its kinda a silly question. Your buying and installing a suspension and braking set up and wanting to put the wrong offset wheels on it....offset matters.
