I'm upgrading my brakes to a full 2g 3000 gt vr4 set up. Not sure of the rotor size yet and was also looking at my options of wheels that would clear.
One option I was looking at.
Evo X? They are 18x8 +38 offset.
Help the next guy out. If you have 3k gt vr4s on lets hear the wheel you run.
brand. size. style. offset. using spacers or not. what brand tires. tire size. fender roll. knuckle clearance. rotor size. dropped? Anything important with wheel selection with these calipers.
 
Did you buy them from me? I forget

You need a wheel with +38 and lower, but the design of the wheel matters. I have seen wheels with +40 and 42 offset to clear the brakes, but as I said it all depends on wheel design. Any Evo 8-9-10 wheel will work. Spacers will works as well, I'd recommend 15mm spacers that actually bolt to your hubs and then come out with studs.
 
I found tuners nation that sells the brackets for this upgrade had this to say...At least 17" . Any Evo 8-10 wheels will work. also Rota Torque 17x8+35 will work as well.

Hey detail did you have to use any spacers? Thats what I'm trying to avoid doing. Or possibly just a few mm to make sure theres enough clearance.
