Spoon calipers fit with the Spoon rims, and they're not that big, not sure about the offset though.

 

whats the offset of the spoon rims though? and does it clear without any spacers?

 

to fit the calipers with the SW's you have to run the +35, and the regular SW's are +45.

 

but does it clear without spacers though?

if so ... how sure are you?

 

Ill ask one of my buddies he has the calipers and the rims set up. But I am almost postive that he is running the 35 in the front with no spacer.

 

thanx

 

SW388 +35 will clear the calipers w/o spacers.

 

so i guess any rims with +35 offset clears the spoon calipers w/o and spacers??

 

Yep, we just finished talking and he is running the 35 offset with no spacers.

 

go look for some willwoods.. they will fit... you can fit a 6pot caliper under the stock wheels from willwood with the 12.2inch rotor.. with no spacer...

 

that big of a rotor on the stock rim ? Wow impressive.

 

BECAREFUL, not any wheel with +35 offset means it will clear the spoon calipers, offset actually only play a small portion of the overall picture. The Spoke designs of wheels plays the most part in determining if you can fit BBK or not.

IE. my +45 offset 17inch clears without spacers, but another wheel, say ce28, will not even come close cause the spoke bends inwards to the inner lip.

 

How much did you pay for the Stoptech's? what kind of difference is there between them and the stock ones?
