Another TL-S wheels question
Another TL-S wheels question
It's been asked again and again, but I need advice on fitment for the factory Brembos.
I want to get a set of wheels that won't require spacers. I really like the five Y spoke design. I currently have Aodhan LS007 18x8 +35 with 5mm spacers, but my brakes will be due and I doubt they will fit even with the spacers once I have new pads. And don't want bigger spacers.
The LS007 is now discontinued and they are replacing it with the AFF7, which is a good priced flow formed wheel that's available in 8.5 and 9.5, both at +35 offset. So the 8.5 is out since there's barely any wheel with those specs that fit the Brembos. Superspeed's got the RF05RR that might work in 9.5 +38. There's also Fast Wheels here in Canada that has the FC04 in 9 +40 or +30 (they look exactly like the Avant Garde M580) but I don't know if the +30 would fit.
From what I read, you would need a backspacing of at least 6.27, which is the backspacing of the original waffles. So those mentioned would have at least that. There's not a lot of five Y spoke wheels that I could find, so anyone know of some that would fit in what I listed, or other wheels that would?
