are you running a 15" wheel or a 16" wheel?

ive heard that a 16" with the right offset could clear the stock brakes

I don't know of any 16's that fit without spacers. Offset isn't your only foe here. If you look at FD wheels, not only do you have spoke clearance on the caliper to worry about, but the sheer size of the caliper CAN hit the barrel of the wheel as well depending on the wheel. Some wheels have a thicker barrel, and some have more space. Make sense?

Bumping this thread want to get a set of Enkei RPF1 16x8 +38 will they clear with a 20mm spacer? Do you need spacers upfront only or back and front?

I was wondering this to, also do you need spacers in the back as well? Or just the fronts with either set of fd wheels? I'm just wondering Bc I found a mix set 2 wheels are the heaviest version and the other 2 wheels are the lighter versions, should I run the heavier ones in the front or back

NO. Read the thread. 16" RPF1 wheels DO NOT FIT. Sorry this is late but I don't someone making the same mistake I did.

No spacers required in the back. Heavier in the front would be preferred but it doesnt really matter.
