Angry Looking for 17" wheels that will clear StoptechBBK

As the title says, am considering to get 17" wheels on my S2000, that will clear the following setup of brakes:

Front: Stoptech Big Brake Kit 328mm x 28mm (Stoptech AeroRotors with Stoptech 4-piston Calipers)
Rear: Custom Brake Setup 322mm x 17mm (Custom AeroRotors with OEM Calipers)

My current setup is on the OZ 18" Superleggeras and am searching around to see what 17" wheels are available in the market to clear my breaks setup. So far, I read in another topic that Work Emotion F (I guess F means Forged) clears the Stoptech without the use of spacers.

Feel free to include details of wheels and/or pictures if possible.

In the meantime here are two photos of my setup at the moment... I had the same wheel setup on my previous S2000 and I need a change, plus am on the track frequently and I know that the use of 17" wheel is the right choice.

Front


Rear (this one was taken on a rainy & dirty day)

enkei RPF-1 in 17x8+45 clears without a spacer, probably your cheapest/best bet

Thanks for your reply, but I must say that I don't like this wheel.

Prodrive GC-07Js clear most anything. But the styling is a bit plain.

Works Emotion CR as well might clear them as you mentioned, same as the Z series. But am looking to find all possible options.

Keep posting.

Does anybody know what size spacer do you need to fit those brakes in AP2 V1 wheels?

Thank you in advance
