Evo Brembo's with Konig Villains?

[theevozero]

Does anyone have any experience with evo brembo's clearing Konig Villains? I am purchasing a set with the brackets. Just not sure if they will clear my wheels. I really wanna keep these wheels. I would prefer not to use spacers.

I's going to depend on your offset but the first few pictures on Google show them on something with Stoptech 4 pistons and then on a Supra turbo with 4 pistons. I want to say you'll be fine.

I saw pictures with similar brakes being used. Not sure if there was a spacer in there. I did see a thread on a mustang forum that used mustang wheels with some gt500 brembo's. They included Cobra R wheels and other replica's in the thread as being compatable. Someone did mention the Villains as being very close in size to the Cobra R wheels. I just wasn't sure, I was hopeing that someone had some experience with this combo. So far, my chances look good.

My 17x8 Villains don't clear the 3kgt brakes so I doubt they would clear the brembo's without a spacer.

That sounds about right Peter. I think the only ones that will clear are the Mustang spec 17x9" wheels. I've never owned a set, so I'm not 100% though, sorry.

Do these wheels come in only one offset or something? No mention of offset has been made in this thread, so how can anyone know if they'd fit or not?
