Default BBK with certain wheels only?

This o1 berlina black S is equided with volk ce28n's, im wondering if you can do the spoon caliper and rotor. These wheels are 17x7 in the front and 17x8 in the rear. Or which BBK is good for this setup?

A little photo of the car:

You need more then just size information, Offsets are key in BBK fitment, The lower the offest the better, but that are some wheels that are BBK friendly without low offsets. I beleive theres a thread on that in the JDM section. Also most bbk's have different sizes. I think the 4 pot wilwoods are the smallest, and the J's Racing/Endless BBK are on the large size

If your looking to clear those ce28n's with a spoon caliper, your going to need an offset in the low 40's or a spacer, so that the spokes of the wheel do not hit the caliper.

I have the 6pot 13inch and they clear 17x9 +63 no spacer but I hear the +50 actually has less clearance(spoke design). If it does require a spacer I would bet it's very minor.
