Anyone know who's car this is? I'm curious if this car used the REspeed mark 1 brake kit front and back to get the 5 lug pattern. Also, I would like to know if wheel spacers were needed? IF so, what size? Thanks

 

thats Directfreak's car.

AFAIK it has turboII front brakes and custom setup in the rear for his ford 8.8 rear.

 

thanks, those wheels fit pretty good. I think I read somewhere that they only weigh like 11 lbs a wheel.

 

FYI, You will need spacers to clear the calipers.

 

thanks for the info Do you happen to remember what size?

thanks

 

"FYI, You will need spacers to clear the calipers."

Well, I did my own adapters, although I assume it is pretty close to the CP or others as far as spacing out from the strut. I only needed spacers in the front, to keep the tires from rubbing on the strut. The rears did not require spacers. I am running 205/50 front, 225/50 rear tires. Some detail photos are shown on my Cardomain page.

I cannot remember the numbers, but I looked at a lot of aftermarket wheels, and they all weighed more than these BBS wheels.

 

looks good! Did you have to do anything special to make the e-brake cable bolt up?

 

buy the respeed kit. he takes care of everything for you. you can use the stock ebrake lines. how do i know? ive got them.

What wheel offset's are you using with the REspeed kit? Or are you using spacers as well?
