Default Need help: if wilwood calipers will clear 15" enkei RPF1 +41 offset?

what's up guys,
im in a deal to buy 15x7 =41 offset enkei rpf1.
i have an 88 HF, right now it has SI front knuckles with 11" rotor and wilwood calipers.
Does anyone here on HT know for sure if the wheels will clear the wilwood calipers?
I've tried my friend's mugen rnr with the spec: 15x6.5 +45 offset, but the spokes hitting the calipers.
If anyone know, pls help soon.
Thanks guys

Yes, 15" RPF1's with 40mm will clear the Willwood setup.

No they won't clear the wilwood calipers, i just tried them last night
But i picked up the enkei anyway cuz i liked them so much.
I'll use stock si front brake setup for now, till i find if i can use homemade big brake kit my friend told me about.

NO, they will not fit. The biggest wilwood kit to fit under RPF1's is the 10.2 rotors. Unfortunately, the 11" rotors with the wilwoods limits you extensively on wheel selection.

I have the Fast brakes 11" rotor big brake kit that uses the DA calipers and they just fit. I had to shave the flashing off the caliper though and I might have a 1.5mm clearance from caliper to the back of the wheel spoke.

Hope this helps. If you use the ITR or Accord wagon calipers with the shaved mounting bracket they should fit.
