So I purchased some aftermarket wheels and then realized I would need some very large spacers for them to clear my Brembos. So I went to it and got the spacers and the wheels cambered but I still rub a lot while daily driving, I also want to get coilovers and go lower which will not work with them sticking out this far. So my question is, if I were to swap my Brembos to the OEM non brembo brake calipersm, would I have to do anything else besides swapping the calipers? Or is it going to be a lot more complicated than that? Thanks

 

Don't do it!!!!! Brembos are prized possesions!!

 

I'm curious - what are the specs on the wheels (diam/width/offset) that required spacers to clear Brembos? What size spacers did you use?

 

18x9.5 -4 offset all around
with a 20mm spacer on fronts and 25mm on rears

 

What kind of wheels are they? I would just get different wheels and keep the brakes

 

The wheels are on the car so they must not be touching the calliper. Am I missing something here?

 

.

 

Those are the "net" offsets are the spacers? Meaning, that your 18x9.5 +16 front and +21 rear wheels wouldn't work? That is odd.

 

If they clear the calipers now, With camber and drop you will be fine. Just cause you drop the car and camber it, it doesnt move the calipers any closer to the rims.

 

I'll take those POS brembos off your hands, fella.

 

Haha. Me too!

 

NO need to try and bother the newest member with your late request, I will take one for the team, feLLa.

 

lol

 

Dear god why!? I bit my tongue when they started ruining perfectly good handling in the name of bowing to the allmighty hellafl*ck. I tried not to laugh when they ruined perfectly good tires with ridiculous camber, i never asked whether or not it hellascraped if they took a turn too hard or if hellaheavy wheels on tiny tires made a sports car handle like a boat BUT THIS IS TOO MUCH.
Now they are swapping better brakes, stopping power, and even (important to them) better looking calipers for poorly fitting wheels!? AHHHH lkajs;ldkja

 

Sell the wheels not the calipers

 

Keep the calipers and sell the wheels - their worth more probably...(depending on what you got)

 

For some reason I heard Dueling Banjos when I read the first post.

 

damn thats alot of poke

 

Hella-Bull!@#$, I would have thout 9.5 +21 would have no trouble clearing Brembos with nearly any spoke config in the rear... but if not ditch the rears and get the right size.

Also note, for the flush crap you need a lot more camber than that!
