Stillen/AP Racing Brake fitment

I'm probably going to get a set of the Stillen/AP Racing 6 piston brakes, and obviously the fitment of the huge 13.9 (14?) inch brakes is a big issue.
does anyone have an idea if they would fit with ADR RS Akunins 18x8s? or how do I determine what I need and how to measure the necessary clearance?

thanks

Give me a fax number and I can fax over the diagram of the brakes so that you can take the wheel off and make measurements.

Re: Stillen/AP Racing Brake fitment

It's safer to go with 18X8.5 with +32mm to +38mm offset. The deeper the lip you want the less offset you want. Offset will help but you are looking at MM, while going with wider rims you are talking about that extra 1/2".

my box says I have 28 messages but I've only got three in there now (I deleted old ones), so if it says it's full, shoot me an email.

18X8 with 38mm might fit. I know 18X8 Volk GTP with 38mm does, so I think you are okay.
