18" C55 Wheels = StopTech BBK Friendly?
As the title states, I would like factual information as to whether stock 18" C55 wheels will clear a front StopTech, 4 piston, 355mm rotor BBK.

Thanks in advance.

I don't see why not. are they st40 calipers yes? I ran the 14" 355 kit on my 911 with 18's without a problem. I'd worry about offset conflicts more than diameter.

Thank you for your response.
Yes, the calipers are ST40.

Will the 18" SL55 wheels with 30/33 (F/R) offsets work with the BBK?

C55 wheels should not have any problem.

SL55 and CLS55 wheels will work too.
