They absolutely will NOT fit without a significant spacer.

Member Clintb1321 has used the EAP wheels with the brembo BBK and had to use a pretty big spacer for them to just barely clear.

Clint has the larger of the Brembo BBK. CrocTease! and a couple others have the smaller kit. I would imagine the smaller kit would probably need a spacer as well. Those calipers are massive.

Yes, but only over the large but stock SVT brakes...

Rota SDR 17x7.5 fit with no spacer over your kit. The EAP's require a 15mm spacer.

TD pro race 1 might fit. You might be able to get measurements from hub center to inner spoke to find out if it will clear. Call a distributor.

I bet 17" TD PR1 will fit. they have a better shape than rota's to clear calipers (case in point, 15" PR1's will clear SVT brake,s but rotas will not)

There is no 15 inch SDR and I doubt the the PR1 spoke is "better than the SDR's as far as brake clearance goes. The SDR is fantastic as far as break clearence it has a TON of room. Also its PROVEN that the SDR clears just fine, not so with the PR1s as far as I know.


Also 15 inch slipstreams will clear the SVT brakes, so I am not sure where you are getting your info.

Which rims are you guys typically using with BBK, I've had a horrible time trying to find something that fits and looks OEM. Do the OZ superturismos fit? I have the saleen brembo kit.

45mm, and good luck finding them. They aren't being made anymore (iirc) so best try and get a used set on here.

I will have a set of SDRs for sale very shortly. Mine are one of the custom order sets for the focus so no hub bore is correct negating the need for a hub ring like most wheels.
