BBK Clearence Question (SSR GT-3)

Okay, im in the process of trying to get a set of SSR GT-3's. They are 18x8.5 +30 and i am pretty sure they are the low disk variant being on the wheel they say LO+30.

I cant try a wheel to see if it clears, because they are like 2000 miles away from me. I can get them for a good price, but ive tried searching and i dont think anyone else has run them with any form of BBK. I am using the Z32 Calipers. Id really perfer not to have to run a spacer, as i think these will sit very flush in the front.

They 'should' clear okay. Of course, nothing is certain until you bolt it on. I'm running +35 offset on my enkei's and I have plenty of clearance with a Wilwood BBK. With a +30, I could probably run 2 sets of brakes I would have so much room

17x9.0J +25et didnt fit. The letters of Nissan on the calipers had to be grinded off and also a 2mm spacer was added. theres about 3-4mm of spacing enough for the caliper to expand without hitting the back of the spokes. depending on the spoke design if its flat on the backside if may fit without any modification.

These? If so, I'd say you have a decent chance at them clearing. They have the right type of spoke design



I ran my bbk using the Ford cobra wheels with no spacers. Clearance galore

thats why g50 q45 calipers are ftw.

i'd say they would fit except for the sl disk. that makes me think probably not.

Awesome. Freakin favroute wheel out there. Ive always wanted them, but been to brokeback mountain to afford them. I think im going to go ahead and pick them up, worst case scenario i got a stock pile of 5-10mm hub centric spacers at my disposal.

Mr****s95SE. I love your new wheels, much more then your "old" set. You go through wheels like crazy! I dont even want to think about how much you've dropped on wheels lol.


Thanks guys for the quick responses!
