Will the OZ Formula4 HLT 17" Wheels Clear Wilwood Calipers?

I am thinking about picking up these wheels for my FiST, but I do not want to commit until I find out if they will clear my calipers. Can somone measure the clearance between these wheels and the stock caliper as well as the stock wheels and stock calipers? If the distance is equal to or greater with the stock caliper they should definitely clear the Wilwoods. I have the stock wheels over my Willwoods and I have about 1-2mm clearance between the calipers and the wheels.

Runner up wheels will be the Sparco Gara.

I ended up ordering one wheel from the Tire Rack, $14 to ship back if it doesn't fit. Will post results on the 2nd when it comes in.

These are a 42 offset, stock are 40. These have the same offset as the Sparco Gara wheel. These are also the stock tires. I still have 50% life left in these. Few more track days and they should be toast. [emoji12]

Updated photos, sorry for the Camera Quality. I'm loving the wheels so far. One thing I have noticed is that rough roads and bumps seem a lot harsher now with these wheels. Anyone have any idea why?

Did you actually weigh the wheels yourself? Tire Rack list those wheels at 19lbs. The only thing I can think of that would make the ride more harsh would be if the new wheels weighed more than the stock wheels. I put on some pretty light wheels, and the ride got slightly better. Just a thought.

I don't know why tire rack has that weight. Maybe they weighed the box too?

Maybe the Eibach springs were tuned for the heavier wheel weight. I'm on stock springs.

That looks insanely good! Thanks for posting more pictures. I love the brakes/wheel combination.
