Can we please make a list of wheels that don't fit with a big brake kit.... I know some people have ran into problems already and am always looking at different wheels but am worried about them not fitting due to the fact of the bbk... I already ran into this problem once.... We can't run steelies period... even wide ones.... Was there someone that was running these and couldn't run them after he/she upgraded to a bbk?

XRnRElite77 fit the 355 BBK in his:

Cool thread, I've been wondering if these 17's would fit with my BBK as well?

http://www.robbygordonwheels.com/product/17x8-black-finish-robby-gordon-signature-series-wheel

with 255/50-17's would be the exact same tire diameter as the stock 255/45/18.

The 355s barely fit the stock wheels.

Sorry, but I don't know the actual inner diameter of the stock wheels... measure it if you still have it! :top:

I have the 332 bbk.

332's should fit fine in 17" wheels according to this- http://www.customtacos.com/vb3/showthread.php?t=41508 post #10

That's who it was! I couldn't for the life of me find the thread and I didn't know who it was that ran them... sweet... I'm looking into these wheels but don't wanna purchase them and then come to find out they don't fit...

You can take a measurement, and call the wheel manufacture. Then they can help you decided if they will clear or not.

yeah I found some locally that are 18x9.5

yeah I pretty much stopped listening to the manufacturers after some dude from a certain wheel company told me that they would clear my bbk because the factory brakes and after market brakes are all designed to have the same clearances... they just compensate by pulling the rotor further in...
