Essex/AP Racing BBK Owners- What wheels are you running?
***(updated 12/6/23)***
For the most current AP Racing by Essex wheel fitment info for your car, please do a year/make/model search on our site. After doing so you'll see a complete list of brake kit offerings for your car. Choose the specific kit you'd like to examine in more detail. The first video below shows you how to find our latest wheel fitment list and our downloadable wheel fitment template for any brake kit on our site. The second video shows you how to use the wheel fitment template and also discusses some other things to consider while evaluating wheel fitment. A couple other articles you may find useful when trying to determine which brake kit is the right one to meet your specific needs: Toyobaru 86 Brake Kits: Gen. 1 vs. Gen. 2 FT86 299mm vs. 325mm AP Racing by Essex Brake Kit Comparison ***Original Post Below...we now have many, many more verified wheel fitments, as well as more brake kit options. Please check our site as described above for the most current information.*** 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

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.

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.

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
