Default Will a 17x7.5 +50 CE28N clear a Spoon caliper?

I was wondering if a Volk CE28 N in 17x 7.5 +50 size will clear a Spoon Caliper without the use of a spacer.

If a spacer is needed what is a safe, track worthy option?

i think you're gonna have to run a spacer...i test fitted my 5zigen FN10R-C on a friends s2000 that has spoon calipers..and it barely cleared..i'd say the clearance was the width of a credit card.

my front rims are 17x7+38

No, a 17x7.5 +50 ce28 will not clear spoon calipers. You will need atleast a 10mm spacer (probably more though)

i personally wouldn't run a spacer especially if they will be seeing track duty..but thats just my opinion...depending on the width of the spacer..you might need to get extended studs too

Old bump. I have 10mm kics bolt on spacers and ce28n 17x7.5 +50

Doesnt clear. The paint rubs, its that close. 3mm spacer is needed and kics shows its ok to add a 3mm to their bolt on spacers
