Will 17" RPF1s fit over the 370z Akebono rear brakes?

Will 17" RPF1 wheels fit over the REAR 14" Akebono brakes? I have a 350z with the 370Z brake kit and want to run 17" rims with my drag radials.

No, they won't. I'm running 18" RPF1's so they will clear. I would have loved to have been able to run 17's.

According to the template made by CZP (http://www.conceptzperformance.com/i...artemplate.pdf) , the rear calipers need 211mm + wheel weights of clearance. I don't think there is a single 17" rim out there that will clear 211mm+.

Stoptech 355 4/6 pot BBK and Wilwood 6 pot 355 BBK will clear 17" TE37 and MB Weapons.

AP racing 14.25( ?? mm) and most likely Brembo GT (209.5mm) will not fit any 17" rim.
