HELP! Wilwood big brake kit and wheel fitment

[Alexandre VTS]

Friends from 318ti.org,

I bought a front wilwood big brake kit, and i'm passing through some wheel fitment problem.

I have Radial Styling 32 18" ET 31, and to make them fit, i'll have to use 20mm spacers. As my car is lowered with H&R race, this will make wheels and tires too close to front fenders.

This way, it seems right time to new wheels.

Does anyone can help me choose one that may fit without using any spacers?

Thanks in advance

maybe you could just roll the fenders out a little bit?

Ti freak,

This is not my intention. If I use 20mm spacers, front wheels will going to be more "out" then rears.

I prefer buy new wheels, that clear this new calipers.

Anyone can help me?

Any idea of which wheels can clear this BBK?

if your on ET 31 with 20mm spacers = ET 11

then any 5 series wheel should be fine as long as it has the same 72,6 inner bore size on the wheel hub

Have you seen these? They show some BBK pics at the bottom of the first post. The guy who created them wanted them to be great for track wheels, very light and enough room for BBK.

Thanks for posting those Dave! Looks like I now have another wheel to consider. I'd like a staggered setup though and will have to email him and see if that's possible (as the group buys have all been for same size sets). I need a new set that will clear the m-coupe brakes that I'll be putting on. I was looking at the D-Force LTW5s, but these look like a nice option.

No problem. I'm pretty sure I read in one of the threads that he will sell staggered set ups. But definitely ask and make sure.
