Enkei PF01 17x9 +60 clear stoptech bbk?
#13
SCCA Class rules are a 17x8 wheel, Thinking about grabbing some 9's to use for NASA PT races. But I'm not sure of any that fit over the brakes. Reason I originally started reading this thread.

The design of the PF01 looks like it will allow for better clearance. I called tirerack today to ask about clearance. I'll post when I hear back.

And, FYI, the RPF1 is known NOT to clear in 17x9+45 offset. Unfortunately they do not make any other 17x9 size. The 17x8 does clear but apparently it is by like a couple millimeters only.

Being able to bolt the wheel on doesn't mean it fits. I bolted the wheel on, and then measured the clearance with a feeler gauge. It's been a while so I don't remember exactly what the gap was, but I believe it was slightly less than 0.5mm. A credit card would not fit. The spacer isn't so much for peace of mind as for thermal expansion.
