Brembo brake friendly wheels

I'm looking to upgrade my wheels on my TL 6mt and been searching but it seems that every wheel I like is not Brembo friendly. So need some help trying to find an 18" wheel that will clear my brakes and not poke out of my fenders ( Sorry I'm old and not into the stretched tires. If you guys have some options and some pics it would be great.

Thanks. Do you have any pics? The wheels are a little expensive but my factory wheels are trashed from the previous owner and would rather upgrade than refinish my factory wheels.

Thanks paperboy but not really crazy about the Aspec wheels. I think multi spoke wheels look really good on TL's but the Brembos really limit the choices because of the offset needed.

Go to Tirerack.com and use their wheel selector tool. And you can also "view" the wheel on the car.

the best wheels to clear bbk are performance wheels. re30, ce28, te37 etc all clear it with very mild specs. They are designed for performance cars with bbk's. Keep in mind they have to be real, as replicas often are designed differently and require much more aggressive offsets to clear

If you're in the market for some 19" wheels, we have the VarrsToen ES4 19x8.5+32 or 19x9.5+4. These WILL clear your OEM Brembos and give a nice flush and aggressive look!


hit us up for the best price!

Seems like any wheels that are +3 will work.

Yes sir! With the H-Tech drops (had them on my 05 TL), I would reccomend going with 19x8.5+32 all around. This sizing is perfectly flushed with the fender (probably less than a 1/4" in the fender). With a 235/35/19 you are looking at getting a straight wall non stretched look. This will get you an OEM plus look If this is something you are interested in, we can work out an acurazine special pricing, let me know!
