Easy How-To Shop Wheel for 6MT

there is one important measurement that is excluded by all wheels (see pic). ask your wheel vendor to measure this for you. this # along with the knowns (offset & rim width) will tell you if the rim will clear the Brombo brakes.

you'll "index" your oem rims 1st, measuring from outside lip through the spoke to the high side of the caliper (wherever it sticks out the furthest). this "index" # along with oem specs tells you exactly where the caliper is in relation to the hub surface. i hope this helps those having the Brembo fitment issues while trying to buy rims from the web.
