Brian is running a 17x8 +45 with spoon calipers.
17x7.5 you may need spacers with that setup.

stock 16's will clear the caliper, it's if the offset/wheel can clear..

he's running a spacer. Also, the MF10 has a nice curve on the spoke to clear brakes.

My old Mag Blue RE30's were 17x7.5 and an offset of 43. They cleared my Spoon calipers with NO spacer with flying colours. It all depends on spoke design.

with my stock 16's or 17's, I need a MINIMUM of a 15mm spacer. Without it, it doesn't clear the caliper.

and nice pics of my car lol! totally forgot i had that pic haha

Yo Dan, don't you have Spoon Calipers on your DC5? Wanna sell it to me?
for the money spent, i say get a real big brake kit, instead of a big caliper kit. $1800 is a lot for just a caliper.

1200 for the calipers from spoon sports direct

if you run those ASPEC wheels, you WILL NEED 15mm spacers. I don't think a 10mm can clear.

they don't fit TSX. They only fit AP1/AP2, DC5, USDM EP3, FA5 and FG2. And since I'm getting a FA5, i'll be keeping the calipers. Yeah... i know.. downgrade LOL!

I thought they do fit cause I've seen TSX w/ Spoon calipers, I guess the brake bracket is different.

A FA5? I thought it would be RWD for you this time... or something that can tail Chu's ass.
