Minimum Spacers for Whoosh BBK?

[esp_martin]

i made a thread about this before and the only *flow formed* 17x8 rim in a 4x108 bolt pattern i could find that would clear a whoosh or EBC BBK is the 2forge ZF1 out of England. they're a subsidiary of Borla and Darkside Development team uses them on their Mk5 track/race car with AP Racing brake kit.

edit: enjuku racing was the distributor i checked with them last year and the custom offset (they recommended 30) and custom hub are included in the price but add on shipping time (i think they said expect 4-6 weeks for them to ship from England). at the time they quoted me around $1000 for a set of 4 delivered to my door which i thought was good value. however i checked last week and enjuku doesn't carry 2forge anymore and hadn't checked the other distributors on their prices.

Does one have to actually change out our factory hubs to use these wheels, or are you speaking to the center bores to fit our factory hubs being our 63.4 size, and therefore considered 'custom' by 2forge??

With the EBC 300mm BBK, I use 10mm H&R with 17x7.5 TD1.2, and 15mm H&R with 17x7 Sparco FF1.

What is the offset/ET on your 1.2s?

thanks for the clarification. i am speaking of center bore to fit our factory hubs. all that said i never went through with the purchase so this was all talk with an enjuku sales rep and no one else.

What is the offset/ET on your 1.2s?

53mm. Effective offset with 10mm H&R is 43mm.

The EBC kit only requires 15MM spacers. I inquired about this yesterday.

The EBC kit with Stock OEM wheels only requires 15mm spacers?

No they did not fit. I had to order a 2nd set of spacers but can't remember if they were 20 or 25 mm. I can heck later today and let you know.

Looks to me that the Wilwood brake kits are the ones that take the least amount of spacing with stock wheels @5mm*
