Hi Guys,

• 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

Enkei RPF1 17x8 35 track

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

Also, if any of you haven't written a review of our kit yet, please email me. We're offering $60 worth of AP Racing brake fluid for free if you participate in our survey.

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

Sprint Kit: Ray's Gramlights 57DR 17x9 +38

Does anyone know if the Endurance Kit can sit behind Enkei RPF1s 17x9 +35

Sprint kit
17x7.5 +48 Volk te37 Needs 3mm spacer
17x8 +35 Volk te37 Fits
17x7.5 +48 Volk se37k Fits
17x8 +35 Volk se37k Fits
16x7 +48 SSR type-c Needs 5mm spacer
16x6.5 +39 OEM 2005 Toyota Celica wheels - fits - however wheel centre bore doesn't fit our hub, wheel centre bore needs slight enlargement
16x6.5 +48 OEM NZDM Gt86 (by enkei) needs at least 8mm spacer
15x6 +35 Watanabe Needs 25mm spacer
18" Work Meister S1R O-disk Fits. (O disk is least clearance disk, so A/R/T will fit as well)
18x8.5 +42 Volk Trophy Fits

Yes I have too many wheels

18x9.5 +38 Enkei RPF1 fits sprint kit
18x9.5 +43 Enkei RS05RR fits sprint kit
18x9.5 +38 Volk CE28RT fits sprint kit

Holy sh*t man...seriously!?!?:lol:I thought I was bad! I had four sets of wheels for my Z06 at one point. That's so awesome. Thanks so much for checking all of those!:cheers:

I finally got off my ass and made an endurance template, seeing as I'm considering getting that kit.

Endurance kit
17x7.5 +48 Volk te37 JUST fits. As in 0.5mm to spoke. Recommend 3mm spacer.
17x8 +35 Volk te37 Fits
17x7.5 +48 Volk se37k Fits
17x8 +35 Volk se37k Fits
16x7 +48 SSR type-c Fouls on barrel. Barrel does taper out to the point it would fit, but it would require an impractically large spacer; over 35mm etc.
16x6.5 +48 OEM NZDM Gt86 Fouls on inner barrel, barrel doesn not taper enough at any point for brakes to fit.
15x6 +35 Watanabe Nope.
18" Work Meister S1R O-disk Fits. (O disk is least clearance disk, so A/R/T will fit as well)
18x8.5 +42 Volk Trophy. Fits
17x9.5 +25 Impul Racing 3 piece. Nope. (Sprint doesnt fit either)

I reckon the endurance would fit inside a 16" Volk. I'll go and check a mates set if I remember.

Also

XXR 17x8.25 35et
Data R1R 17x8.5 35et

both work without spacers

I can add a few, although these may be difficult to find elsewhere :)

TWS T66F 18x8.5 +44 - Both
TE37SL 17x9.5 +45 - Sprint (Haven't tried endurance template... yet)

Really want to know if Ray's Gramlights 57DR 17x9 +35's fit the sprint.

Anyone know if the endurance kit fits RPF1 18x9.5 +38?

I didn't see it in the list, does anyone know if the Sprint kit will fit with the 17x9 +45 RPF1s? I thought it did since the spoke design was more concave but can't remember.

Edit: Okay found a list in another thread, the +45 17x9 RPF1 does not fit. Anyone know if it will fit with a 5MM spacer? I know the +35 fits by like 1mm, but the spoke design is a little different.

Does te37sl 18x9.5 +40 clear with sprint kit?

Rays Gram Lights 57Xtreme
17x9 +40

Sprint Kit

since the 17x9 et35 rpf1 barely clears. What about running 17x9 et45 and 12mm spacers. this should give around 5 mm of clearance. Is that safe? Is the spoke design on both offsets the same?

Why? Run the 17x9 +35s without spacers, here is mine without spacers tracked no issues at all.

18x9.5 et38 rpf1

ignore the shave on caliper edge from previous stupidity (forgot to put on spacer with other wheels and backed out of garage)

Mine fit with

Enkei Raijin 18x8.5 +45
Enkei PF01 17x8 +45

Ill get some pics at my next track day

Kosei K4R 17x8. Endurance fitment:

Enkei RS05RR 18x8.5. Endurance fitment:

Checked the Sprint kit template against OZ superreggera knockoff wheel of 16x7j +38. It passed.
I am sure that my SSR Type C 16x7.5j +35 should pass also.

They have the same face... flat. 9"+ all are flat.

Dowloaded template, measured that it printed correctly and fitted them on my wheels

Both the Sprint and Endurance kit fit without any problem and with more than enough clearance.
Volk CE28N 17X7.5 +35

Sprint kit ordered couple days back.
