i am planing on getting endless brakes in the near future, but apparently Volk wheels will not clear the brakes. They said i need to order Volk wheel spacers? Anyone familiar with them? are spacers safe? do they look bad or can u not see them? any thoughts?

 

Im not sure if Volk spacers exist, but I'm not sure. I just got a 25mm spacer since I'm getting ready to get a BBK for my 240. THey are safe, just make sure they're installed correctly and also get hubcentric rings. Ive seen alot of drifter cars use spacers.

Get Kics, they're very HIGH quality.

 

I have 15mm Kics up front and 25mm H&R's in the rear.

Both are well made, but I give a slight edge to the Kics.

 

we got kics and h&r spacers instock

we also have the hub centric rings to go with the kics spacers.

volk does not make spacers, fyi.

wheel spacers are very safe for any purpose of use, as long as they are well made and hub centric. We have used 25mm and 30mm spacers on our track cars, after many track events there's no sign of any problem.

 

^^ Great service, thats where I got mine!

 

I would walk away from whoever said that. First Volk doesnt make spacers. Second Volks come in all kinds of offsets as wheel manufacturer has nothing to do with brake clearance. What type, size, and offset Volks do you have?

 

i got a set of h&r spacers i just took off with 150 miles on them f/s
pm if intrested

 

25mm

 

call fred at wheelspacers.com, he'll make you a custom set. he's an old race car driver/builder, funny as hell and full of good info.

 

are you sure you need spacer.. I got the 6 pot Project U brakes and the wheels clear it not problem. what offset did you get and on which wheels?

 

hmm, well i ordered My Zeal Coilovers last week so waiting for them to come in before i ordered my wheels. I am planning to get Volk GT-C's , what offset would i need then? i am trying to clear Endless brakes and still get the biggest lip possible. i thought it was kinda weird that they wouldnt fit endless brakes either. Not sure if it matters but its for a 05 G35 coupe.

 

Well anything 19" will definitely clear as far as diameter and there are quite a few GT-C owners with BBK so check on their widths and offsets to make sure the wheel will clear offset wise.

 

I know that Volk wheels will clear Endless Brakes (Singal 350z) also what size wheels are you planning on running? 18? or 19? I know some offset that will clear your brake kit no problem..

 

i am planning on getting 19s. Apparently the Endless brake system comes out more then say brembo and grex.

 

I know all the Volk front will clear over endless, but if you want to upgrade the rear caliper too then I would recommand you get a High Pad rear wheels, you will loose some lip but will clear the caliper without spacer.
