August 30, 201015 yr alright chris . same size wheels as mine mate . offsets on mine are 35 and have no clearance issues at all on the discs and calipers . oh and i havent got any spacers on either andy
August 30, 201015 yr Although your fitting slotted & grooved discs I assume they are stock sized? You haven't fitted a bigger disc kit have you? Assuming they are stock sized, it is very likely that they will fit, but you'll only know for certain by trying to fit them. The size of the wheel is pretty average TBH, but its the spoke designs that will determine if they catch the brakes. Do you know the offsets of the wheels? Sorry I can't be more helpful, I bet they'll fit, just can't be sure.:(
