brembos + 5 spoke saleens...fit?

[Jucostud]

Has anyone with brembos seen if 18x10 +40 offset 5 spoke saleens will clear brembos? I just bought some and need to know if I'll need a spacer to clear the front.

any update on this? looking for something in a 18x10 that fits this bill...

I don't know if this helps, but the wheels I run for AutoX are the American Muscle versions of the Saleen 5 spoke, with a +45 offset and they clear my stoptechs with room to spare, I did run a small 3mm spacer when I had 295s but with the 315s I run 5mm, and I trimmed the bolt for the swaybar endlinks because they were just too close for my liking.

Did you run the 31st on all for corrners? Thanks for the info..AM is having a sale on the 18 10 for $84 each...

I have been trying to get this answer for some time......@ $85 each, that is a steal! Someone has to know for sure, if this works or not.

 

[redline8k]

Im going to call AM in the morning to find out what the offset is for sure. if worst comes to worse we can run a 3-5 mm spacer like stepqhen said, that should give us +40mm ish offset.

Mine are +40 and I had to run a 5/16th spacer to clear the brembos. I went ahead and got some ARP studs and 1/2 billit aluminium hubcentric spacers.

Yeah they fit the boss rear Lmao

 

[redline8k]

OK so just to be clear the 45 mm offset would be better or worse for clearance? I confuse myself sometimes...lol

 

[Jucostud]

Worse for clearance 45 sits in more than 40

 

[redline8k]

OK that's what I thought thanks.

I am assuming you are asking if I run 315s on all corners, and yes I do. I get a little rubbing at full lock, but nothing too bad. With those I do run a 5mm spacer.

I saw that price and was trying to decide if I needed a second set for....something?

I do have aggressive camber (-2.7) and the rear poke just a little, but for AutoX it is fine. If you check out my youtube channel you can see some videos looking down the side of the car for fitment, although I think most of those I am running 295s. www.youtube.com/stepqhen

 

[redline8k]

LOL yes I was asking about the 315s stupid auto correct. did you have to go with longer wheel studs with the spacers?
