    Those with 19x8.5 RS-GTs

    If you have them off for the winter would you be able to check a brake template for me? I'd really appreciate it.

    Thanks.

    templates will vary based on the printer. you will need to check the printout with a micrometer to make sure it is precise. if you are looking if it will clear the BBS wheel, BBS can tell you from their website...they have different Brembo, Stasis, StopTechs listed there already.

    Yeah, makes sense about checking the printouts. I would bet they won't fit behind my Brembo 355 kit but I'd like to know by how much. Since the wheels are ET38 I could use up to 5 or 6mm spacer. I'm just not sure if that would be enough.

    For LM's, i think 3mm would clear. i normally recommend 5mm since the 3mm spacers tend to be too flimsy. make sure you place a coat of anti-sieze on the spacer to prevent it from becoming part of the wheel. =)

    you're basing this off a 355 Stoptech kit correct? I believe the Brembos stick out a little more laterally, so I might be SOL.
    Anyway, if anyone has these wheels I'd still appreciate it.

    FYI, my friends B5 S4 had Porsche Cayenne brakes (370mm IIRC) and they cleared with no spacers

    Ok, thanks. Problem is the only brake set I've come across that sticks out more laterally than these Brembos are the B7 RS4 brakes.
