They are. They're horrible. Kinda put myself in a spot where I couldn't be picky....you know like by selling my only set of wheels and then immediately buying another set with a 3 month wait....lol

I just won't have a use for them once the TD's I ordered arrive. If I liked them I'd keep them as a spare set but these were purchased out of necessity, not desire.

•••• a duck! They don't clear my brakes arrrrgh
future reference: Those with the 12.2" Wilwood BBK....just get 17's. Because if Ultraleggeras don't clear, nothing will

Wait, what size are the Ultraleggeras? They look like 17" but I'm guessing no?

16x7 +42
Luckily I haven't paid for them yet, just made a deposit and borrowed one to test fit. With a 10mm spacer they would clear, but ehhh

Yea most of those big brake kits will tell you that you'll need 17" or bigger wheels to run them. My Baer's barely clear my 17's as it is. Probably have 1/8" clearance to the rim from the caliper.

Yeah my eaps clear 1/4" all around with the pbr calipers. My new wheels ( cat is out of the bag) clear by 3/8" or more. They are also 17's but used to be advertised as bbk friendly. I would love to see a car slammed on 16's with a friendly offset, but I wouldn't do it if I had some nice ones going on shortly.

If those H&R spacers weren't so damn expensive I would, I can't justify spending too much money on what ultimately is going to be a back up set of wheels. And those RR's are yours as soon as I yank 'em off lol
Yeah my SVTF's didn't have much clearance either, but with the 1/4" spacer they were fine.

Makes sense. I was gonna say, the 17" BBS RX's I bought off of you cleared my 13" Baer setup without spacers.
