Is that for Supra or LS calipers? I know its mainly to do with spoke design, but whats the chances of LS ones fitting behind a 40 offset?
got my LS400MK2 calippers from aliga installed together with 315mm Brembo rotors yesterday. 16" OZ Opera rims fit on these calippers perfectly. i think they are 16x7.5" with 40mm offset.
exactly these wheels are sold across Europe as "winter wheel set for the old LS430". the clearance is about the same as in the LS430. about 2mm space in outside diameter and about 5mm towards rim.
the SC400 looks great with these rims. very very sporty and classy.
i cant tell much to the stopping power of the new calippers/rotors. my LS430 still brakes 200% better. but it is already a slight improvement noticable. dealer said NOT to brake hard for minimum of 300 miles. LS430 manual says 200 miles.
i found out the back rotors are warped and that one of the 4 pads is nearly gone.
