If we are talking '03 Enthusiast 17" wheels, they most certainly DO clear Brembo brakes. They also clear 13" Stoptechs.

This internet thing gets scarry sometimes!

Get aftermarket wheels for that. The stock wheels, and even the track weels are heavy. If your using the spare wheels for the track you want something light. There is a bunch of 18's out there for a decient price that are way lighter than stock anything.

I think the easiest way to put a stop to this question and clear the air on the will they - wont they question is to post a few pic of 17" over brembos. I picture is worth a thousand words.

Post the pics and shut everyone the hell up so we can get on with our lives.

I thought I did. See #4. About the 100th time I posted it.

papag1, the spare for 17" wheels will NOT clear Brembo brakes. Sorry.
