who makes wheels that clear the brembos
 

just got my 08 ss fri am trying to find wheels to clear brembos has to be 20 mm offset any help would be nice

The million dollar answer for these cars is who can find wheels with enough clearance without using wheel spacers...nobody has found any wheels that clear them with a safe clearance...most are thinking of using wheel spacers....

Where did you get 20mm offset from? The OEM wheels are 42mm offset...

the wheels i had on my 06 were 38 mm offset and there damn near a 1/2 in off so im looking for around 62 mm now

Konig hotswaps will fit had them n my car 4 2 days while my buddy had his car at the painters

and another member has ssr rims on his 08 balt

pics would help and web page

dont be lazy hit up tirerack.com

tire rack dont list shit i have been looking all damn day

What's the stock size and offset of the oem 18" set up? 18 x ? e.t. ?

they cant tell you..its not what rim fits..its what rim clears the brembos

so no1 wants to say it will fit, if they dont know for sure...and no1 knows for sure because no1 has a car

shoot me a PM and ill give you my number. ill do some digging with my wheel reps and see what i can find for ya.

to all those who are tryin to help thanks to tREBs shut the fuck up and go away if i want to here un helpfull bull shit i will call my ex i go 3 ppl on this just looking for any help and more options $ isnt the problem but i dont what to spend $700 to $ 1000 a wheel

Stop the useless bickering. Now or sooner. Thanks, carry on.

If it were only as easy as calling a wheel shop...I've been to 5 local wheel/tire shops (looking for winters) and not one has any idea what will fit. 4 of the 5 called their "wheel specialist" all of which insisted any 17 or bigger will fit. I bickered with the first few then said screw it for the last couple... Almost no one has any experience with the 08-09's and wheel fitment. Hopefully someone can find a good shop, or someone they know that works at one, that can throw on a ton of different wheels and find out what actually fits.

but he came to a MESSAGE BOARD to ASK A QUESTION, which is apparently an unheard of thing to you... he didn't want to call a shop, he wanted to ask a fucking question on a message board, a good one at that... I could understand if its something that has been beaten to death on here(like GM stage kits), but have you checked our sticky on wheels? its a fucking brembo brake topic, hardly any posts about WHEELS...

ill be on top of this today. i gotta call my wheel reps at the warehouse and see what i can come up with. ill be posting my findings them.

^ damn ,get me the hook ups too!! haha

not unheard of, i will admit i may have been a bit harsh yesterday, i had a VERY bad day to say the least/ under alot of stress (effing school!:cussing:)... i appologize for that.
however at the same time it seems i took the way he was asking in the wrong context.

this is how i meant it to come across.... go to a local wheel/ tire specialist, show up and talk to them in person, let them know the dilemma and if they would spend some time figuring something out with you, if they are a good shop and reputible at that they should have no problem with this as it will only lead to more business...

trebs... do you not understand what hes asking ? sure he can call a shop, they can get him rims that will fit.... but unless they are a brembo wheel tire and brake fitting company:) im pretty sure they will not know what will clear the brakes. he knows what size rim fits his car. he just doesent know what rims will clear the brakes without spacer. jeeze give him a break .

thx again to all that are tryin to help my wheel guy has talk to 22 dealers so far every one of them well it should fit so now its buy a wheel check it send it back how damn long do you think that will fly
what i cant believe is the 08 has been out for how long and its still a problem is there any aftermarket for this car

For real and take that POS Infinity... Do us all a favor & drive it off a cliff.

does anyone remember the espn spot about talking out of your ass if you dont have the car you dont know shit

Powder Coating is a cheap easy solution if you can leave your car on jack stands for about 5 days.. I am doing gun metal black on my 09 silver balt will post pics

that makes no sense....so what your saying is that after you sell a car that means u cant talk about it anymoer cuz u dont have the car in question...good god man..get a grip.

what does his car have to do with any of this???? at least hes not driving an economy box. have some balls step up n spend 60Gs on a car then u can talk shit about his infinity.

jack stands? cant afford steel wheels?

I <3 infinitis...and do it like me
