17x9+22 brake clearance?

i'm looking at getting some enkei rpf1's in 17x9+22 and 17x10+38 and i was wondering if those wheels in those offsets will clear Z32 brakes.

i'm mainly concerned about the front, but if anyone knows about the rear clearance, i'd be happy for the help there, too!

they clear fine

you want +18 in rear

brake clearance depends on spoke design not offset

no, i want +38 in the rear. that's why i posted that.

while spoke design effects brake caliper clearance, offset does to an extent as well. hence why i posted the design of the wheel, and the size and offset.

There's plenty of clearance. I have 17x9 +22, 17x9.5 +38 on my s13 (with 255/40/17 in back). Wanted the x10's but I would have had to wait for them.
