Gold Brembos under wheels in pic
Will gold Brembos fit under these 18 inch Tarmac alloys without any spacers I bought them on the group buy from Midland Wheels and I would like to know before I put the Brembos on
If I need spacers what size and can I still keep the same studs

Apparently these 'Tarmacs' won't fit over Brembo's. If you read post #107 in the 'GB on 17 & 18" wheels' someone has already had this problem. Midland wheels sent the guy some spacers, however I wouldn't fancy having spacers on a scoob..!
There seems to be some confusion with people thinking these 'Tarmacs' are made by Rota (Tarmac II's which do fit over Brembo's), when clearly they are not.

I did have a few people at the time warn me not to run spacers, citing possible wheel bearin problems, but as said, I never saw an issue.
I could possibly have got away with using the standard bolts, but I wasn't happy with the lack of thread left, and so went for longer bolts, just to be on the safe side.
