Just like the title... Is there a BBK out there (355mm preferably) that will fit under the stock 18" B6 USP wheels? I didn't find much when I searched it... Thanks! [hail]

my 332 stoptechs did not fit under my OEM USP wheels +43 offset
i had to run 5mm spacers in the front to clear them. i dont think a 355 will clear

stock S4 brakes (345mm) will easily fit under USP wheels. I'd imagine a 355mm bbk would too. the issue isn't really the diameter size, it's how far the calipers stick out, which can conflict due to wheel offset (et). A spacer would provide the offset clearance, a 10mm spacer brings the USP wheels flush with the fender and you could likely shove any bbk under there.

Thanks guys, if I can pull it out far enough with a spacer, that's good enough for me. I just downloaded all the diagrams from stasis so I'll measure it out this weekend.
Thanks again!

Jim, could you please post links to the pdf's for the 355 and 370 mm kits? I'd like to see if either or both fit under my stock 18" wheels that I will at least keep for winter use if I get a set of Alcons. Thanks for your help.

Thanks very much. Is there a picture on the site showing how to properly place the template inside the wheel to test the fit? Or perhaps you can describe it?
Edit: Never mind, I found a picture on another brake kit site that lets me know I was doing it right. The 355 appears to fit the 18x9 ET 52 7 arm (turbine) wheels I have. The 370 definitely does not fit. I'm looking for how much clearance, 1/8"?
