Default Big brake kit with these wheels?

Really been trying to find a set of black wheels with a chrome lip that I like more than my Deep Dish Bullits that I can put a big brake kit in and still have the 18" wheel. Found the FR500's in 18x9 and 18x10 (staggered set up I'm about to do with the bullits, as I have 18x9 all around). On the 18x9's the backspacing is 6.2" and offset of +30, where as on the 18x10's the backspacing is 7" and the offset is +40. This enough for a big brake kit? Not sure which kit I want to go with currently...

its hard to tell with just those specs, i had 20x 8.5 fooses, and they dotn fit over the gt500 brembos, the spokes get in the way of teh caliper, best bet is to get a brake template of teh kit you want and send it to the company yoru buying the wheels from first, if they are willing to measure for ya

Hey there,

Here is a link to the page that has the fitment guide for the AP Racing 6 piston kit. Scroll down and click on the tiny ruler - thats the fitment guide.

And, a link to the page that has the fitment guide for the AP Racing4piston kits (one for the 4 piston front, one for the 4 piston rear). Scroll down and click on the tiny ruler - thats the fitment guide for these.

Hope that helps some.
