Got 18x7.5" Ultralite ATECs with an offset of 48. Will these fit over Prodrive Alcon front calipers and standard WRX rear calipers?

my friends 17 inch innovit tarmacs clear his alcons so its likely,but im not sure of his et number though???

the ET (generally) has little impact on brake clearance, its the style/design of the inner rim and spokes that affect brake clearance - hence how an STi 7.x17" wheel can clear a bulky Brembo caliper and yet they are ET53 (from memory)

I had these wheels and they wouldnt clear brembo calipers, but not sure on prodrive as they have a flatter front face than brembos.

They are the wheels in the link below, seen them on plenty of imprezas but they come in a 7.5" and 8" width. Mine are 7.5" so thats why i started to wonder.

Hi

The Atec 1 wheel fits over Brembo calipers in the 8.0x18 but not in the 7.5x18".
Not 100% sure on the Alcons though.

Thanks

Think it may be a case of trial and error then

Bump, anyone have 7.5" width rims with alcon brakes?

stockcar

the STi Brembo caliper requires far greater clearance than an Alcon/Prodrive kit therefore it appears they wil fit fine.........
