Hey all

I wanted to ask if anyone would know if that the big brake kit would work on my car with these xxr 531 rims? I'm asking cause the back side of the rim sits flush with the hub and I think someone told me that the big brake calipers will it the hit cause of that.

Would anyone know if that's true and if so is there away around that so I can do the big brake kit "300zx or q45 " brakes is the big brakes in talking about

sorry guys

with this kind of width and offset, the 17" will most likely clear the 300zx 4pots without any spacers. the 15" you have is different story, it might not clear the calipers top to bottom (diameter wise)

what model of xxr you have for the 17"?
