Going to fit the red dot brembo kit i bought a while back to my STI VI soon as the 17s it is coming with wont clear Brembo callipers. Can anyone give me ideas of alloys that will fit over Brembos in 17" with offset about 52-54mm?

Cheers for your help in advance,

call brembo or go to their website. Or speak to Godspeed. Iain may be able to help as he sells the new Brembo calipers himself...

They are a rather light wheel - 7kg

£105 + VAT per wheel from TSL

Yep, they now come with centre caps that fit - the ones in my pic were held in place with tape but they now make the wheel with the correct size hole.
