The Wheels That Clear An E36 w/ BBK thread

[Nihilation]

Others may be in the same boat as I so I figured I'd throw this up here. For those of us with a BBK such as Brembo, Stoptech or UUC looking for wheels that clear the calipers and fit properly can be a headache. So here it goes, if you have a BBK please list what wheels you are running with specs(size & offset) and if they require a spacer. Pics if possible.

I'll start:

UUC 13" BBK with 17x8.5 Kosei K1's. No spacers front or rear.

We have the wheels listed that we carry and clear the Brembo brakes. For the other BBK I would not know.

On a 98 M3 With front StopTech I run BBS RS 17x8 et 38 with a 10 mm spacer to clear. Track I run Team Dynamics Pro Race 1 17x8 et 40 with no spacer.

BBS CH's 19X8.5 clear front bbk's and H&R coilovers.

im in the search for wheels and so far the only wheels ive found is the:
-Racing dynamics racing wheels
-Kosei K1 wheels
-CCW wheels
-SSR Comp wheels
all wheels with 45+ offset in the front
Please list more wheels that people have found i need help aswell.

It would really depend on each brake kit and the size of the brake kit. We carry the Brembo and know which wheels we carry clear those but other mfg's I can not be sure on.

does anyone know if the LM reps that mod bargain sells will clear the stoptech? i have the front and im lookin to get 18x9 they have ET38. i think that my main problem will be rubbing if i go with 245's... what do you guys think?
