Just wanted to ask if the work emo cr kai F 17x8 +47 and R 17x9 +44 offset would fit the J's racing BBK? or would i have to add spacers or need a larger rim?

Sinji

more likely have to go with lower offsets. at least a +35 on the front so add a 10mm spacer.

on my fn01rc i had a +35 but i added a 3mm to clear. the rear im not sure...

paper thin clearance:

The rear caliper position is more or less unchanged from stock. No worries there.
More detailed info about the rears can be found here https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showt...&#entry13088749

I don't know about Works but generally you need at least a 40 offset or lower I doubt that a +47 will work with out spacers. However depending on spoke design / face other offsets will work. The real problem is what are you going to do with your fenders????

ohh dammm ..don't really wana use spacers or anything..how about spoon calipers?? or would i need spacers as well?

It depends on the spoke design and everything, but I think for Spoon calipers you need a +59 offset to clear w/ Work Emotions.

There's a whole thread on it in teh wheels subforum.

yup there is alot there but they all give different answers lol..some say you need a +35 offset, some say you need a 6mm spacer, some say it won't fit and now i get a +59 offset..LOL i really dunno which one to listen to


im going crazy to try to find out the right answer

Sorry but there is no way a +59 offset will clear spoon calipers.

The confirmed Spoon caliper fitment for Work Emotion CR Kai is 17x7 +42 offset w/ +6mm spacer. J's calipers are a lot larger. The offset needed depends on the spoke design of the wheel as stated above which is why there are so many different recommended offsets.

work emotion forged 17x8.5 +59 to clear the spoon.

you might also clear with work emotion forged 17x7.5 +40 on spoon

DerrS2K

I stand corrected. Does that fit in the wheel well without a stretched tire? I assume you would run the same rim size in the front and rear?

Ok so it says Work Emotion CR Kai 17x7 +42 offset w/ +6mm spacer and if im correct i would need a 11mm spacer? since im at + 47
