I am getting really serious about changing my wheels. My Work Emotions are my true love but with the +47 offset there is no chance of running any bbk and lowering the car without serious fender work.

I am really starting to like the RG-R but I want a BLACK (or really dark gunmetal) wheel that will clear the Endless BBK (It has the widest caliper of any if I remember right) and be 8inch wide in the front and 9.5 or 10 in the back.
225/fr 265/r. The problem is I don't have any idea what kind of offset to get. I don't want to run a spacer, I don't want to get wide fender or roll the ones I have and I DO want to put some dampers on eventually and drop this thing 1-1.2 inches.

I don't really need endless brakes but however good the wilwoods may be from brake zone I don't want a mini 6pot I want a true big ass 6piston caliper in the front.


thanks

 

the other option is to order some Work VS-SS which I can get in any size and offset custom ordered and I think they come in black.

18x8 +?? 18x9.5 +??

225/40/18?
265/35/18?

 

I think you're asking for the impossible. The Endless caliper is HUGE. There are a few people on here that have had that kit, and they've had plenty of headaches fitting the kit. If you're not going to be doing any serious (i.e. HARDCORE road racing) driving, there is no reason the Wilwood 6 piston wouldn't be fine for you. Also, since the Wilwood caliper is on the smaller side (I wouldn't call it a mini), you can go very close to a normal offset. I know there is one guy on here running a 17x9" +63 Volk CE28N with the Wilwood 6piston kit, and lowered more than 1.2" with out a single rubbing problem, and no spacers required.

I don't have the brakes you mention so I can't tell you if the BBS wheel is going to clear. The RG-R does not clear the Brembo brakes.
