Any come across some 15x8 wheels that clear the big brakes on 1g's? I was tossing around the idea of converting my gvr4 to 4x100 since there are more options for 15x8, since I know the stock wheels barely clear the brakes as it is, and recently found 15x8 in some rota slipstreams in +40 5x114.3 http://www.wheeltech360.com/ROTA-Wheel-Slipstream-15x8-5x114340mm-73mm-Hub_p_230.html . That offset looks very promising, but I have also read people have to clearance components to make other 8" wide wheels fit. Obviously I would have to convert my car to 5x4.5, but that would be easier than 4x100.

as far as the brakes i do believe they fit the 1g dual pistons fine. the rear trailing arms on the 1g did pose some issue where it either required a spacer or modding the trailing arms for clearance.
