I am planning to add a bbk to my S. The wheels I have right now are OZ superleggera 18x8 for the fronts with a +45 offset if I remeber correctly.

My questions is:

Will the +45 offset work with any of the bbk without any spacers? If not what kind of spacers do I need?
If anyone who has the same wheels as mine has a bbk installed please post some pics and comments.

Thanks!

I could be wrong but I don't think you'd want to add a spacer to a wheel with a 45 offset. Wouldn't that just push the wheel out more (causing rub)?

That wheel actually has a lot of room. You can run any of the Wilwood 6 piston kits (12.2", 13" ,or 14" rotor) without the use of a spacer.

6 pot 13" is more than enough for an 18" wheel...

If you really want to go extreme, the 14" rotor is just that, EXTREME...

lol so here i am ... looking for the offset of my rims so i can give you my own personal experiences when i scroll down and sherwin already got my pic posted. quite an honor. thanks, sherwin.

here's my specs for the black S you see above.

18x8 GT-3's with 225/40/18 goodyear eagle F1's
offset: +49mm
spacers: 3mm with about 1.5-2mm clearance from the rim to the caliper

here is my setup specs:

brakes: Brembo gran turimo 13" rotors
wheels: Work Emotion (forged)
size: 17x7.5 +52
spacers: 6mm from sherwin @ brake zone
studs: stock
clearance from caliper and wheel spoke: ~0.5 mm
here is a pic of the wheel and big brake kit and clearance...




overall i am very happy with this set-up. i wanted to do the same with Work Rsz-R but i also have questions regarding fitments. i know the Rsz-r have a 16 inch center and the brembo 13 inch rotors need a minimum 17 inch center to clear. i don't know if a thicker wheel/hub would make this work.
here is a pic of the Work Rsz-R...

Thank you guys for your kind replies. So say if I want the brembo or Stoptech bbk, how many mm of a spacer do i need? Will they fit without spacers?

Thanks Sherwin and S2X for those pics. They are really helpful. Any body have any pictures of the stoptech or more info on the brembo bbk because those are the ones I am considering.

Stoptech has a wheel fitment guide you can cut out and check for yourself. That way you can be 100% sure.

If i was to guess, I would say you would need a 5mm
