2017 BRZ Performance Package Wheel Clearance Concerns - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

DG-86 · 03-06-2017, 11:57 PM

Can anyone confirm if a set of Enkei RPF1 17X9 +35 wheels will clear the PP Brembo calipers on a new 17? Thank you in advance.

Edit: RPF1 17x9" spoke design sucks for brake clearance. Edited for clarity.

17x9 +35 RPF1 WILL NOT CLEAR. I had to use a +8mm spacer to get them to clear and its still bonkers close in the front.

The link is there, for whatever reason the tags aren't functioning it seems like.

You have to put .jpg at the end of the link if you're putting it between the IMG tags.

Did your PP car come with a spare tire in the trunk?

Thank you for the insight.
How's do the wheels sit with that 8MM spacer in regards to the fender well fitment? Do they stick out past the fenders? Pics? Are you lowered yet?

it fits fine in the front and doesn't rub anywhere from what I can tell. The rear can rub if you are too low or are on really soft springs. Keep in mind you don't need the spacers in the rear, only in the front.

I'm fairly low, I'll upload a picture for you to see.

Just FYI, Kosei K4R 17 x8 fit just fine. I run these with my All Seasons on.

Pics for reference. Just sharing info.

WedSport TC105N should clear as well in 17x9 with the 38 offset. I'm going to test fit one on Thursday night to be sure.

TC105N +35 has very good BBK clearance. Brembo PP kit uses similar calipers as the STI but has different piston setup so the caliper is not that large compared to the Brembo GT unit.

In addition, once I have time in the next week or two, I post up some clearance pics of some TWS T66, but don't imagine there will be any issues.

Does your Performance Package BRZ have a spare tire in the trunk?
