I got done talking to Jim@tirerack via PM and he says Stoptech BBK 328mm will fit these wheels with 63+mm offset.

I can't tell you by how much but we do have the drawings of the brake package and they do have enough clearance. If I can help with anything let me know.
Initially Jim stated they were BBK friendly, but now he is saying they are NOT.

It says they don't come with center caps. Will the stock AP2V2 center caps work?

Wow, I like these. Like the TRC3, will these come with hub rings for proper hub fitment?

If they are like the ap2v1, they won't fit without modifying something.
They are a little too small and won't snap into the opening. And the oem caps won't fit the rears at all. The axle/nut protrude from the center of the wheel (k8r)a little bit.

The k8r wheels I bought came with aluminum rings and a circlip ring to hold them in the wheel. However, I am not using them.

I will take some in the next couple days of the K8R.

I like them from the side, but wish they were at least flush when looking from the front/rear. The inside of the wheel protrudes out maybe 5-8mm (probably to help with brake clearance).


And red anodized valve stems were put on the wheels.....I wish they used a nuetral color like black or silver.
