Do I need + 43 or +50 to clear the Spoon 4-pot caliper? I know for sure at least one of them will clear, but not sure the other one.

thanks

 

+43

 

I'm not positive but I think +50 will NOT clear, however the + 43 will allow your wheels to clear the Spoon calipers.

How much did you pay for the 4-pot Spoonies?

 

+43

 

Why won't a 50mm fit? The spokes will hit right?

 

Yup, You need at least a 45mm offset.

 

so why does the millenia wheels hit (+50) w/ the spoonies? right, Craig

 

What offset are the Millenia rims?
Some 15" rims wont fit due to inside diameter of the rim.

 

This is something that never made sense to me. Ben at A&J said that they WON'T fit under a 50mm offset 16x7" Mugen rim but WILL fit under a 50 mm offset 15x6" stock rim. Why is this??

 

I believe the millenias have everything identical to stock.

 

50mm offset 16x7"
50mm offset 15x6" stock rim
The answer is in Bold
Also Spoke shape comes into consideration also.

 

Except for the shape of the Spokes

 

Wrong... they do not fit, i have fawking proof... fawking piece of crap fawking rims (can you tell i'm a little pissed) I even took a dremal to the calipers and still was not enough. Getting some 3mm spacer from Brian over at fastbrakes tomorrow to try them out. Thanks Brian, you kick ***.

Craig - Who got 8 tires mounted on rims that don't work

 

Well, I meant that the offset and rim size is the same.

 

The spokes hit the calipes though

Craig - Who fawked with this very problem for 4 hrs last night

 

I *almost* went for the same setup thinking they would fit.

 

I'll let u know if the 3mm spacer works. I took off the washers that you space the calipers off the knuckles and this moved the calipers in about 2mm, but i was short about .5mm I cut down the spoon goodness with the dremal where it was hitting, but .5mm is alot and I did not want to tempt it. We will see tomorrow after work

Craig - Who is dying to try his azenis

 

Goodness

 

Good luck

 

I see spoon rotors?
