Those to my knowledge should clear the stock Brembos.

excellent choice the limited edition halos are sexy ass wheels

during my wheel quest I looked at these wheels and since bbk fitment wasn't verified I didn't get them

here is my opinion: there is a small chance that they will... but honestly... it all points to needing a 5-10mm spacer because of the spoke design

If I were you I'd get 18x8.5 +45 with a 10mm spacer = 18x8.5 +35 (for the fronts)
and
18x9.5 +50 with a 10mm spacer = 18x9.5 +40

that setup will be something I would admire (and I almost did it... until I fell in love with the super hiros)


by the way streetdreams.org I believe has the best price on these wheels free shipping

i talked to axis yesterday and in order for these to fit, I would need spacers up front. At least about a 5mm spacer.

I won an auction on ebay for these for an unbelievable price of $595 shipped. Its too good to pass up but since I would be needing spacers, i don't know now......These were going to go on my nbp and the gold and black would've looked hot!

I'm going to look into spacers...
