will a 15" rim clear the big brake kit by ReSpeed? or do i need to go with a 16"?

 

Hum blast them an email and ask if no one else hear knows. How big are the disks?

 

I thought the Respeed kit used the stock 2nd gen discs and calipers. They run with 15 inch wheels. Why should there be a problem? I am running the 2nd gen discs and calipers, and my parts are basically the same as Respeed. I use stock RX-7 convertible BBS 15 inch alloys. However, with the stock 2nd gen offset, you need a spacer. My spacer is 1.25 inch thick.

 

My old 15" Centerlines fit over my Selectmaz big brake kit, which also uses the TII calipers and similarly sized Holden rotors.Itll be close,so Id say it depends on the offset,wheel width and construction of the wheel(welds,spokes,lips,ect)

 

15" will be fine.

Not ALL 15" wheels will work. Probably 95% will, but some will hit the caliper. I have a set of old American Racing or Centerline or something 80's wheels with 5x4.5 and probably 0 offset, would fit almost perfect besides the fact that they don't quite clear the strut housing and hit the calipers. With a small spacer they would clear, but otherwise no.

 

yeah i'm lookin at some sportmax 501's 15x8 +15

reckon they'd clear?

 

Again that's why I think you should ask Respeed directly. You won't be the first one to ask and getting an official response will cover your **** if you have to return.

 

I am running 15x8 sportmax 002's on our wide body project. They fit fine.
