Ok so I was able to meet up with the guy selling the Rays G Games wheels....all I can say is WOW!!! These are some beautiful wheels that were well taken off. He gave me a really good deal on them. Now I just need to swap out the tires.

Thanks for all the help every one.... I learned a lot from this whole experience. I always say "no mistakes only lessons" and now I know!

Did you get a chance to test fit yet or just eyeballed them?

Just eye balled them. My daughter had her baby over the weekend so I haven't had a chance. Soon, very soon.

Chad, for future reference are you running spacers or anything else?

That doesn't reveal if they cleared the brakes without the spacers.

I'm guessing by the fact that he also has "Akebono BBK (Red)" listed on his sig along with the spacers and nothing else that would affect clearance... That it does clear with no issues. Not 100%, but an good educated guess.


Sounded more hostile than I meant it, lol. I'm sure 350zchad will either confirm/deny eventually.

Still good for him to confirm so people can reference this thread

Look at his sig?



By default I have sigs turned off

If I wanted to reference my spacers etc... I would have.

Akebono would fit regardless of spacers
