Hi Guys,
I've been getting a ton of customer wheel fitment questions, and I'd like to update our confirmed wheel fit lists for our Sprint and Endurance Kits. If you are running one of these kits, could you please list the wheels you are running, using the format below.

Here is what I currently have:

SPRINT KIT
The wheels below will clear this big brake kit without a spacer:
Name size offset

• Enkei RPF1 17x8 45
• Enkei RPF1 (very tight fit, but works) 17x9 35
• Enkei Fujin 17x7.5 40
• Kosei K4R 17x8 36
• Mach V Motorsports "Awesome" wheel 17x9 42
• OZ Ultraleggera 17x8 +48
• Rays CE28N 18x7.5 47
• Sparco (designed by OZ) Assetto Gara 17x7.5 48

ENDURANCE
The wheels below will clear this big brake kit without a spacer:
Name size offset

• BBS CH-R 18x8 38
• Enkei Fujin 17x7.5 40
• Enkei RPF1 17x8 45
• Mach V Awesome 17x9
• Rays CE28N 18x7.5 47

Thanks gents...hopefully this will make things a bit easier for others trying to get into the game!:cheers:

Enkei Raijin 18x8 45
Stock wheels with 10mm spacers up front.

Volk Racing TE37 18x7.5 +48

NOTES: Wheel does not clear the brake kit. Requires at least 3mm of extra space. Currently using 5mm spacers.

I would recommend to anyone purchasing this kit that they also switch to longer wheel studs and open ended lug nuts while you're at it.

Sprint Kit: SSR GTF01 18x8.5 +44 offset, no spacers

wedssport sa67 18x9 +36

I am 99.99% certain Volk Racing RE30 17x8" +44 will fit. I have that now and it clears my Endless BBK with almost 20mm of space.

Enkei RPF1 17x8 45

I used the template and measured against my set of NT03+Ms that are in boxes.


Half inch or so of inboard clearance between the caliper and the inner wheel bevel area.


17x7.5 +35 NT03+M

Thank you gentlemen...keep 'em coming!:cheers:

Sprint kit.

TSW Nurburgrings 17x8 +45

Lots of space. Running a 10mm spacer just for looks.

TC-105N 17x9 +35 (nothing new)

Keep up the good work

Enkei RPF1 17x8 45 for street

Thanks guys...I just updated our site. :cheers: Keep 'em coming!

Not taking anything away from Essex/AP since it's the kit I plan to buy, but :drool:
