Default volk gts doesnt clear my bbk.. what to do

so before i ordered my volks.. i asked around and everyone including the vendor told me 19x9.5 +17 and 19x10.5 +18 will clear BBKs.. but today after getting tires mounted on.. i realized that the rear did not clear the BBK.. i will need spacers.. what kind do i get?? i was able to get the wheel on and everything but the wheel just barely touches my brakes therefore making it unable to spin.. if i get spacers wouldnt the things that stick out not be long enough for me to securely lock my lug nuts?? i have no experience with this.. any help is great! thanks

what bbk do you have? i know for a fact that stock brembos, stoptechs and wilwoods fit.

9.5 +18 and 10.5 +17. i have wilwoods, drzeyas has brembos and Nitrouz had stoptechs.

5mm might just clear them and you wont have to get extended studs. measure the distance of the clearance you need and you have your answer. if you need anything other than 5mm then your going to need extended studs.
