17" wheels
will 17" wheels squeeze over my front brakes????Looking into lighter performance wheels.
Looks like the 18" have 5/8 or 3/4 of an inch clearance. And a proper 17" would be tight but doable

C32 used 17" wheels as stock, so they'll clear the Brembo brakes.

Yes, but it comes down to caliper clearance. My winter setup is on 17s and require no spacers, but the clearance is ~ 5mm.

Considering some enkei rpf1 wheels.
They have a lot of clearance.
Many pics or specs from anyone running 17s
