Theres about 1/8-1/4 inch clearance, which is more than my old Work VS-XX wheels that had about 1mm literally, never had an issue with those and these Volks are a stronger wheel. On the bleeder portion, that lip actually doesn't sit right on it, it's in between the bleeder area and the caliper where the pads sit inside.

No track days with these wheels obviously so I don't see any problems. Many wheels make brake calipers look small so these acheieved what I was looking for.....

Fitment looks nice, do you plan on lowering the car?

Dude u have *****. That is a really wicked sick offset. Does it rub at all on lock?

Im confused as to why these wheels have such a ****ty caliper clearance.. Is it just the wheel design? Or does the more negative offset make them fill up the center more?

It does rub currently on lock, but it will be much better when I go back to 265's instead of 275's.... And I believe the fitment over calipers is due to spoke design and the portion with the "volk racing" logo, however I like the clearance. Makes the wheel look like it was made for the brakes.....IMO
