Yes they should.

The 6's are a bigger caliper (duh), marginally thicker than the 4's. So it's NOT a safe bet to say if a wheel clears the 4's it'll clear the 6's.

If it only just clears the 4's (~1mm clearance), they won't clear the 6's. You'd probably want ~5mm clearance to the face of the 4's to be safe to clear the 6's.

I won't say 100% yes but so far we have found it to be correct

On the fg i have about 65mm clearance from the stock caliper to the back of my wheel spoke. Is that enough to clear Brembos?

From memory you need about 90mm from the outside face of the rotor to the inside face of the spoke. The brembo rotor was brought about 18mm or so closer to the rim before you even fit the caliperss.

just measured from the face of rotor, the outside edge i have 103mm and from the inside edge of the the rotor is bang on 90mm, might just squeeze in..

ADV 5.1 19x8.5

Was looking around but there's not much info on them as they are a custom wheel the best way to tell is trail fit them on a car with brembos.

[ryan2991]

Yes as they are the same as the proper ones.

[Wolfinsheepsclothing]

I'm looking at changing my wheels on the gs going from motegi racing mr122's in 20'' back to staggered 19'', I can get a good deal on Advanti racing wheels but there doesn't seem to be many 19'' options for falcons, these are what i'm thinking about at the moment - advanti racing Geneva 8.5 and 9'5'' rims(will they fit) -

[BOOSTEDGAZ]

Hey Mate, what's with the change back to 19's - too bumpy cos of our "awesome" NZ roads?

yes that will be a bonus but the main reasons being tyre selection and slightly improving grip and performance, I want to run 245/40-19 front and 285/35-19 tyre on the rear, the 20's are next to useless on the strip, for you Kiwi's here's a link for my 20's for sale - http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=654503101

Do the 20x9.5" rears clear also? Or are you referring to the 19x8" copies?

Yeah sorry, I'm talking about the 20s. I have the 9.5 rears on my ute and they clear no problems.

I have just got the rims and did a quick fitting(rim only) to see if they clear the brembo's and yes they fit- so another option fpv's etc with brembo's, offset is +35 front and the same +35 rear

[kempy311]

+35 is pretty much standard fitment.

[shaine71]

anyone know if VERTINI DRIFT 20X8.5 +35 will fit 6pot brembo

[PepeLePew]

Try pm'ing worm...think I recall a post on xr6turbo where he suggested a different offset to accommodate front Brembos. Of course worm being offset obsessed....
