Damn i already have the arp studs. lookds like im gonna be buying some rota's

 

Uh oh,,, someone's going quicker this upcoming Evo vs Sti day!!

 

Will the rota grids fit over the brembos with a 40 offset with a 16x7 rim and a spacer?

 

They should but nobody has tried the Grids so you're our first guinea pig.

 

lol ah man i was hoping you wouldnt say that... Ill try as soon as i can find some

 

I hope your right man I ordered some today I'll post pics and info once I verify they fit. Thanks for your help

 

Cool. Let us know. I would think you could get away with a smaller spacer. I'd use some washers on 3 studs and measure the washer thickness when you get enough to clear the front of the caliper.

 

Oh ok so you don't think 20mm spacers are gonna be enough to clear the front? Im pretty sure the back should be good without spacers?

 

20mm should be okay but you might be able to get away with 15mm since the Grid spokes come out more to clear the calipers. Thats why I suggested to measure with washers first and see what you really need for spacing. Yeah back should be fine with no spacers. Mine are fine in the back.

 

. Oh ok that's good to hear I just already had the 20mm spacers for the slipstreams but I couldn't find anybody that had em in our bolt pattern

 

So for some reason the guy I was getting the wheels from says that they couldn't get the grids but now he can get the slipstreams in a 45 offset what size spacers u guys think ima need to fit these?

 

I imagine another 5mm on the spacer which puts you at an odd spacer size. 27-30mm spacer should work. 30 is going to stick out 3mm more.

What color are you looking for?

 

So a 25mm spacer wouldn't work with a 45 offset?

 

20mm would not work with my +40 Slipstreams and I was forced to get 22mm spacers instead. Since a +45 is going inwards 5mm, I doubt 25mm will work.

I'm surprised you can't find a 40 offset.

You may want to call other places to see if they have them in stock

I did call racinglab but they didn't have any in stock either along with 6 other places the 45 offset was all I could get so the higher the offset the further in they go?
