Title: ttrs brake clearance
Post by: DANBOY66 on April 04, 2015, 09:26:46 am

Hi All

I have just about got my edition 30 wheels over the ttrs brake calipers using a 13mm spacer  :happy2:

I like the look at bbs ch-r's but they are 19x8.5 et48 any ideas if they would clear with out sticking out the arch to much?

I have actually tried bbs ch-r 19x8,5" ET48 over my TTRS brakes, they fit with 2mm clerence to the caliper! But I ended up buying a set ATS Racelight 19x8,5" ET45 instead.
