What offset 17" to clear Rotoras

Hi guys,

I am sick of warping rotors and I want to put on a wilwood or rotora big brake kits, what offset do I need to look for in a 17" x 7" or 17x7.5?

Are SSR Gt1 still available, they are nice....


Thanks,
Vinay

Would the RSX A-spec wheels clear ones of the brake kits?

There's no spacific offset needed for all wheels, it really depends on the space between the spokes and the calipers. U can usually mention to the retailer that u have a BBK and ur concerned about the clearence and they will help u. Plus in that case ur also pretected if the wheels don't clear.......

E-mail Rotora and they will send you a template. Use the template to decide whether or not the wheel would clear the caliper. Of course, if you don't have the wheels yet, then that would prove to be difficult. I would recommend sending the template to the wheel manufacturer or the retailer to find out if the wheels you want would work.

For what it's worth, mine's 18x7.5 ET42 and there is plenty of clearance with the Rotora BBK.
