Default Wheel Size Used On The Genuine Wilwood Front Brake Kit????

If u do have the Wilwood front brakes (not 11" FastBrakes Kit), or know anyone who does, whut kinda rims are they using? Also, do u think that 16" Rota C8s or 17" Rota Attacks would fit over the brakes? Thanks in advanced.

Mugen Mf8's or most 16 inch forged wheels will fit as long as the drop center for mounting the tire is close to the outer lip of the wheel. I am having 3 piece 15 X 8 inch Kodak wheels with the drop center out side the wheel center made. Have been on order since March but should be here next week. You need 14.2 inches of inside wheel clearance and it is a very tight fit for three piece 15 inch wheels. Don't know conclusively on the Rota's, it is dependent on the offset your going to use on the 16 inch wheels, 17's should not be a problem. 16 inch SSR comps only have 13.8 inches of inside wheel clearance at the hub flange acordrding to Tire Rack so they will not fit unless they are running a large spacer or less than 34 mm offset.
