Here is the deal and I think you guys have the most knowledge to help me with my task.
I started another thread that is more tailored towards my project:

Problem for me is this:
I need to install my Wilwood Big Brake Kit but need to clear stock AE 17" wheels.
I have no idea what the offset is on the stock rims nor what the calipers need for clearance. I am very surprised that alot of people haven't tried this before so its making this harder to be the first one to accomplish this if possible.
I have been told that I will need 30-35mm but I think that is totally wrong. I think measurements need to be more accurate.
Other problem with this is I want to keep my AE rims (for now and later/much later I want to keep them as non-show/non-summer rims). So this is something I want to accomplish without everyone suggesting buy new rims.
I am pretty sure this is feasable but I haven't been able to prove it.
Since H&R doesn't sell a 30-35mm spacer kit I would need 2-15mm kits I would assume but that is ridiculous.
Any help with stock wheel offset is much appreciated. I also want to find out what is the clearance reccomendation for the Wilwood calipers and hopefully I can come up with a "real" spacer requirement instead of just some estimates.
Thanks
