he's running the endless now with the asm-prodrive gc-07c wheel 17x7.5 +48 front. I know it clears the spoons perfectly without using spacers. The wheels were on my car before i sold it to him. He is using it now with endless with a 3-5mm spacer, dont' remember which. So those wheels are definitely an option for you folks

Whats up? I had Spoon then Endless then Spoon then back to Endless. LOL Back and forth.

I am running the Endless 6 pot kit right now. I can tell you that the Spoon and Endless BBKs are overkill for daily driving/commuting/street. I bought them because of the sponsorship package I received.

After having both caliper sets twice I can tell you that the Spoon calipers are much easier to work with using OEM front fenders. If you goto the larger Project Mu, Winmax, Endless, J's Racing, Amuse, AP BBKs you will have headaches with finding good front offset wheels and at the same time being able to use good/wide front tires and not damage your front fenders. I went with the Cwest +10 mm wider front fenders and shaved off another 3-4 mm so I am basically running +13 to +14mm wider front fenders with a 17x7.5 +48 front wheel with a 5 mm spacer. You can use a 3mm spacer but I wanted that extra room. I am running 215/45/17 front tires and was running 225/45/17 front tires but on hard turning they would rub so I went down a size and now I am fine with no rubbing anymore with anything. I would have been fine with the 225s if I hadnt used the spacer but I had to, to clear the BBK. Spoons would have been fine with no issues. Anyway there are a lot of BBK knowledge members on this board. Bluesaint is one of them..

Let me know if you need help with anything.

Where did you shave the extra 3-4 mm from? Did you shave it from the lip of the fenders?
