Default Brembo GT Big Breake Kit - pleas help

Hello everyone


I'd like to buy Brembo GT 4 Piston Big Brake Kit an example http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...d=330620462060

It would be on a 2006 AP1 (europian version) on 18 Work VS-XX, 8 with 50 offset. Would this kit fit?

Thank you all in advance for your help.

expect need for spacers of 15mm at least.
probably more of 17-20mm range.

i've measured templates of quite a few BBK's and this what all of them reuqired.
Spoon caliper didn't fit either.

my wheel have same clearence as yours. and it's already 5mm better than OEM wheel.

i eventually got this kit:

fitted without spacers under my RE30.

i would say if there is no fitment template than don't buy!!!

that 17x8 et25 has 25mm MORE clearance over your 18x8 et50. this could even lcear a lot BBKs!!!
i wonder how hard they had to abuse the fenders to make those wheels to fit

you can try TAROX - i've heard they state that their BBK fits inside OEM 17" wheels.
for me it's hard to beleive - but maybe it's true...
