what size rims/offsets are needed to clear spoon brakes? i'm currenty using 17" te37s with 48+ fronts i've seen 45+ offsets clear on advan RG2s gruppe-s/evasive tells me it will clear without spacers but on the other hand many people tell me they wont...

can someone with brake clearance knowledge please let me know they seem to have slightly enough clearance but would anyone know the diameters of the spoon brakes?
There are a lot of wheels that clear the Spoon calipers. The Advan RG2 18x8.0 +45 will clear with no spacer. That is a fact.

Work Emotion Forged 16x7 +35 front will clear with no spacer
Work Emotion CR Kai Cast 17x7 +42 with a 5mm spacer will clear
ASM Spec Prodrive GC07 17x7.5 +48 will clear with no spacer
Spoon SW388 16x7 +35 will clear with no spacer.
Volk CE28s 17x7.5 +43 will clear with a 3mm spacer
Wed Sports SA90s 17x7.5 +43 will clear with no spacer
Black Racing Pro N1 17x7.5 +45 will clear with no spacer
Advan RG2 18x8 +45 will clear Stoptech and Spoon calipers with no spacers

These are just several that will clear...

The TE37s will need a 15mm spacer to clear with that +48. The spokes do not allow any play because they are flat. Even with a 15mm spacer you will have to go with open end lugnuts and extended studs.

Depends on how low you want to go. If you lower only 1 inch, all of these will suffice with OEM fenders.
