Brembo Wheel Clearance
 
Hi All,

Does anybody know if a 5x100 ET45 18" wheel would fit over brembos?

Thanks

Chris

I would think so.SJ.

Are the brembos much wider than standard or just taller? doesnt seem to be much spare room from the spoke to the caliper.

Thicker all-round as long as they are not touching the alloy you will be fine.SJ.

stonejedi 15 January 2016 02:52 PM

It will be closer but they should still fit.SJ.

ET has no real bearing on caliper clearance its simply the internal spoke design you have to worry about........

bearing in mind std STi wheels are ET53

Make and spec of wheels would help, as alyn says, spec of spokes and design is paramount.
