18"/19" Stock wheels and Brembo Upgrade
I'm considering to upgrade to the 14" Brembo Brake kit from Ford Racing (M-2300-S) on my 2012 GT Premium.
Question is will the 18x8 and 19x8.5 OEM Wheels which I have a set of each (for winter and summer) fit if I use 25mm wheelspacers with them ?
I know that these wheels will not clear the bigger Brembo front brakes without them but can somebody tell me if it will actually do using wheelspacers?
Just wanted to make be sure before spending the money on these Brakes, any experiences?

Print out the brake clearance guide and test it onto the wheels, that's all you need to do. Once you do that and test it with the factory brake, if it doesn't fit, then simulate a 25mm spacer in there and see if it clears. You just need that print out guide, print it on a piece of paper, cut it to it's size and check

it would fit but you'll have very low tread left on the stud to bolt on, we tryed it with my stock 18'' 2013 premium wheels on 12' brembo'ed and he had to put like close to a inch of spacer to make it clear, leaving very low place for proper bolting on stud, he actually passed on the trade, i did the brembo upgrade front 4 piston, i was Lucky enough to be already running 18'' svt oem Shelby rims 9.5'' width..and imo, they clear a bit flush..id say yes they could fit flush with spacer on 8.5, 19'' but id forget it on 8''..except of course if you get longer tread studs, but that get expensive im guessing.
time for news wheels 10'' width?
