What bbk? I have wilwoods and my previous wheels were 18x8.5 +45 and I needed a 10mm spacer to fit. I have also been told that wilwoods are wider then the other bbk's

Now I have 18x8.5 +30 NO spacer and there is plenty of room

I have 18X8.5 +41 on my TL-s, still have a lot of room for the front like at least 1CM space between the bbk and wheels.

I would think it would be determined by the design of the "spokes", rather than the offset of the flange. If the spokes were of a heavy design, or turned inwards as they went towards the outer part of the wheel the offset would be different from what I might say a conventional design.

Does determine the wheel design but you can always get the same design and run a diff disk and be good to go
