TT calipers and G-spiders
Does anyone know for sure if the 18" G-Spiders will clear supra TT brakes? I know the newer 3rd gen GS has bigger brakes and these wheels are OEM for them.
I can take a picture of the clearance if it gives anyone a better idea.

I have heard that any of the new wheels(i.e. G-spider,IS250,GS430) will still require a small spacer 5mm or so. If you look at the new calipers on the 3GS it has a smooth face that is thinner than the TT caliper.
Hope this helps,

Did you notice a significant improvement in braking? I'm wondering if TT brakes justify the extra expense plus the use of 5mm spacers versus just upgrading the rotors/pads/lines
