depends on the car, I looked forever to find the clearance on using ls460 brake brackets on my gs400 and an 18 in wheel, ended up just pulling the trigger because I couldn't afford these other brake kits and could always sink the cost of the bracket and return the calipers but couldn't sink the cost of a brembo brake kit of over 1200 bucks minimum. It ended up hitting the wheel weight, but it fit 3/16ths so it was okay after a rebalance and some of the wheels actually got rid of weights entirely.
I like big brakes and cannot lie; just don't like when it's time to start replacing things....Oh hold the phone...you mean to tell me that the EVO, a car that has been out of production for many years is driving (no pun intended) the plethora of et25/35/38 offset on wheels, especially in the 5x114.3 pcd? Is that why I can really only find 17x8 and 18x8/8.5 et35, in stock, vs more et40-48, because they fit the EVO?
Well done Scott! Great informative video as always.
BBK FTW!
