do big brake kits have width requirements? do different kits have different requirements? i have 20 inch rims but the stock caliper is very close to the wheel.

sorry i cant help but im also curious, because it looks like theres only a paper width of clearance on mine to. but i would advice changin the title cause people will prob think your talking about "bbk performance" the company.

yes, certain brake kits have different rim size requirements.


like the GT500 setup. it requires aftermarket 18" or bigger rims due to backspacing issues...or you can install spacers instead. but stocker rims won't fit without help.


I highly suggest you contact the company and ask them directly

i couldnt get a good shot...but maybe someone can help

looks pretty close man


you can always replace your wheel studs with Grade 8 studs that are longer and install a 1/4" or 1/2" spacer.


it's safe as long as you get high quality replacement wheel studs.




but just looking at your current setup, I'm thinking a new big brake kit won't clearance against your rim spokes.

It depends on the Caliper you are interested in. Wilwood SL6 come in a "thin" version that would probably work. StopTech has templates on their site - print it out, trace it onto carboard, cut it out, pull off your wheel and caliper and hold the template in place, with a couple mearsurments you will know real quick if they will fit. You can always use spacers if its close.
