I would say it depends on your wheel, but with that offset, I can't see how the spokes would be an issue.

I have 17x9 Works, and have 330mm (13") rotors with a shit ton of clearance.

I was running a 13"(with Z32 caliper) too on a work equip 17" (17x9+36) it was very tight , thats why im wondering, i heard the Te'37 have lot more space to play

I seriously doubt it. The project mu calipers are fairly large so I am going to say no. I have the sti brembo setup with 17 inch 5zigen FN and I have about 1/2 inch from the caliper to the rim. And I am not talking about from the spoke to the caliper. I am talking about from the top of the caliper to the rim. You need 18's.

want more info on the G37s caliper set up on a S13 :).


to the thread starter you are going to test fit items and take it from there and as others mentioned its also about your rims.
